This is funding to support a doctoral research symposium (workshop) of approximately 8 promising doctoral students from the United States and abroad (no more than one, to broaden the horizons of the U.S. participants), along with about 4 distinguished research faculty. The event will take place in conjunction with and immediately preceding the 25th ACM Symposium on User Interface Software and Technology (UIST 2012), to be held October 6-10 in Cambridge, MA, and sponsored by the Association for Computing Machinery's Special Interest Group on Human Computer Interaction (SIGCHI). The annual UIST conference is the premier international forum for presenting innovative research results as well as implementation experiences 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. More information about the conference may be found at http://www.acm.org/uist.This year's doctoral research symposium will be just the 10th such workshop associated with the UIST conferences (NSF has offered support for 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. To these ends, student participants will each make formal 20-minute presentations of their work to the group, to be followed by an extensive discussion lasting approximately 30 minutes during which they 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. The students will also present their research to a wider audience through posters at the conference poster reception, brief overviews during the conference overview session, and short papers in the UIST Adjunct Proceedings. Broader Impacts: The doctoral symposium will help expand the participation of young researchers pursuing graduate studies in the vital 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 also 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. To further increase participant diversity, the organizers will use NSF funds to support no more than one student from any single institution.

这是为了支持大约8位来自美国和国外的大约8位有前途的博士生（不超过一个，以扩大美国参与者的视野）的博士研究研讨会（研讨会），以及大约4个杰出的研究学院。该活动将于10月6日至10日在马萨诸塞州剑桥举行，并在第25届ACM用户界面软件和技术上的ACM研讨会之前和之前举行，并由计算机机械协会的人类计算机交互特别小组（Sigchi）赞助。 年度UIST会议是呈现创新研究结果以及人类计算机互动软件和技术的实施经验的主要国际论坛。 它汇集了来自不同领域的研究人员和从业人员，包括传统的图形和网络用户界面，有形和无处不在的计算，虚拟和增强现实，多媒体，新输入和输出设备以及计算机支持的合作工作。 有关会议的更多信息，请访问http://www.acm.org/uist.ther.this ther Ther Ther Ther Timal博士研究研讨会将仅是与Uist会议相关的第10个这样的研讨会（NSF从其启动中提供了对这些活动的支持）。 这项全天活动的三个目标是增加社区中参与者工作的曝光率和可见性，以帮助在这一下一代研究人员之间建立社区意识，并通过提供支持性和互动环境中一组高级研究人员的实质性反馈和指导来帮助促进他们的研究工作。 对于这些目的，学生参与者将分别为小组的工作进行正式的20分钟演讲，然后进行大约30分钟的广泛讨论，在此期间，他们将收到教职员工小组的反馈；该反馈旨在帮助学生了解和阐明其工作相对于其他研究的定位，他们的主题是否充分专注于论文研究项目，是否正确选择和应用方法，以及他们的结果是否得到适当分析和介绍。 学生还将通过会议海报接待处的海报，会议概述会议上的简要概述以及UIST辅助程序中的简短论文向更广泛的听众展示他们的研究。 更广泛的影响：博士研讨会将有助于扩大在用户界面软件和技术重要领域中追求研究生研究的年轻研究人员的参与，这为他们提供了一个机会，可以在社区中获得更广泛的敞口，从而获得其创新工作，并从研究社区的高级成员那里获得反馈和指导。 这也将通过允许他们在自己的专业发展中建立一个至关重要的研究人员来建立一个社交网络，从而促进这些年轻研究人员之间的社区意识。 由于学生和教职员工在各个方面构成了一个多元化的群体，因此学生的视野扩大到了该领域的未来利益。 该活动的组织者将做出特别的努力，以吸引来自历史上没有大量代表的机构的学生，并促进代表性不足的群体的多样性。 为了进一步提高参与者的多样性，组织者将使用NSF资金来支持任何一家机构的一名学生。
