This is funding to support a doctoral research symposium (workshop) of approximately 8 promising doctoral students from the United States and abroad, along with distinguished research faculty. The event will take place in conjunction with and immediately preceding the 22nd ACM Symposium on User Interface Software and Technology (UIST 2009), to be held October 4-7 in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, and sponsored by the Association for Computing Machinery's Special Interest Group on Human Computer Interaction (SIGCHI). The UIST conference is the premier international forum for presenting innovations in the software and technology of human computer interaction. It brings together researchers and practitioners from diverse areas that include traditional graphical and web user interfaces, tangible and ubiquitous computing, virtual and augmented reality, multimedia, new input and output devices, and computer-supported cooperative work. Although UIST is a long-standing annual conference, this workshop will be just the 7th doctoral research symposium associated with the conference (NSF has supported these events from their inception). The three goals of this full-day event are to increase the exposure and visibility of the participants' work within the community, to help establish a sense of community among this next generation of researchers, and to help foster their research efforts by providing substantive feedback and guidance from a group of senior researchers in a supportive and interactive environment. Student participants will make formal presentations of their work during the workshop, and will receive feedback from a faculty panel. The feedback is geared to helping students understand and articulate how their work is positioned relative to other research, whether their topics are adequately focused for thesis research projects, whether their methods are correctly chosen and applied, and whether their results are appropriately analyzed and presented. Student position papers will be published in the UIST Conference Companion, and the students will also present posters relating to their work at a special session the first night of the conference. Broader Impacts: The doctoral symposium will help expand the participation of young researchers pursuing graduate studies in the field of user interface software and technology, by providing them an opportunity to gain wider exposure in the community for their innovative work and to obtain feedback and guidance from senior members of the research community. It will further help foster a sense of community among these young researchers, by allowing them to create a social network both among themselves and with senior researchers at a critical stage in their professional development. Because the students and faculty constitute a diverse group across a variety of dimensions, the students' horizons are broadened to the future benefit of the field. The organizers of the event will make special efforts to attract students from institutions not historically heavily represented at UIST and to foster diversity across under-represented groups.

这笔资金用于支持由来自美国和国外的约 8 名有前途的博士生以及杰出的研究人员参加的博士研究研讨会（研讨会）。 该活动将与第 22 届 ACM 用户界面软件和技术研讨会 (UIST 2009) 同期举行，并紧接在该研讨会之前，该研讨会将于 10 月 4 日至 7 日在加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省维多利亚市举行，并由计算机协会特别赞助人机交互兴趣小组 (SIGCHI)。 UIST 会议是展示人机交互软件和技术创新的首要国际论坛。 它汇集了来自不同领域的研究人员和从业者，包括传统的图形和网络用户界面、有形和普适计算、虚拟和增强现实、多媒体、新的输入和输出设备以及计算机支持的协作工作。 尽管 UIST 是一个历史悠久的年度会议，但本次研讨会只是与该会议相关的第七届博士研究研讨会（NSF 从一开始就支持这些活动）。 这次全天活动的三个目标是增加参与者工作在社区内的曝光度和可见度，帮助下一代研究人员建立社区意识，并通过提供实质性反馈来帮助促进他们的研究工作以及一群高级研究人员在支持性和互动环境中的指导。 学生参与者将在研讨会期间正式介绍他们的工作，并将收到教师小组的反馈。反馈旨在帮助学生理解和阐明他们的工作相对于其他研究的定位，他们的主题是否充分关注论文研究项目，他们的方法是否正确选择和应用，以及他们的结果是否得到适当的分析和呈现。 学生立场文件将在 UIST Conference Companion 上发布，学生还将在会议第一晚的特别会议上展示与其工作相关的海报。更广泛的影响：博士研讨会将帮助扩大在用户界面软件和技术领域攻读研究生的年轻研究人员的参与，为他们提供在社区中获得更广泛的创新工作机会，并获得反馈和指导的机会研究界的高级成员。 它将进一步帮助这些年轻研究人员建立社区意识，让他们在自己之间以及在专业发展的关键阶段与高级研究人员建立社交网络。 由于学生和教师构成了一个跨维度的多元化群体，因此学生的视野被拓宽，以利于该领域的未来发展。 该活动的组织者将做出特别努力，以吸引历史上在 UIST 中代表性不足的院校的学生，并促进代表性不足群体的多样性。
