The 10th International Conference on emerging Networking EXperiments and Technologies (CoNEXT) will take place December 2-5, 2014, in Sydney, Australia. This award provides support for 10 US-based graduate students to attend this conference. Participation in conferences such as CoNEXT forms a central part of the graduate school experience, providing students with an opportunity to interact with more senior researchers and exposing them to leading-edge research in the field. ACM CoNEXT stands unique in its emphasis on interactions between networking researchers at an international level, and attending CoNEXT presents an excellent opportunity for US graduate students to connect with the thriving international research community. As in past years, CoNEXT 2014 will include a special student workshop, allowing students to present present their work in progress, receive feedback on their work, and obtain valuable experience in writing and presenting technical papers. The support enables students, who would otherwise be unable to attend to participate in the main conference and associated workshops at CoNEXT 2014.This project integrates research and education of students through exposure to a premier technical meeting in computer networks and communications. Students will have the opportunity to observe high-quality presentations and interact with senior researchers in their field, both in the main conference and the associated workshops, and their inclusion will have a positive impact on the quality of their research. Women and other minorities will be especially encouraged to participate. The CoNEXT conference has developed into a top-tier international conference, presenting a tremendous opportunity to students to expand their knowledge of the field.

第十届新兴网络实验和技术国际会议 (CoNEXT) 将于 2014 年 12 月 2 日至 5 日在澳大利亚悉尼举行。该奖项为 10 名美国研究生参加本次会议提供支持。参加 CoNEXT 等会议构成了研究生院经历的核心部分，为学生提供了与更多高级研究人员互动的机会，并使他们接触到该领域的前沿研究。 ACM CoNEXT 的独特之处在于它强调国际层面的网络研究人员之间的互动，参加 CoNEXT 为美国研究生提供了与蓬勃发展的国际研究界建立联系的绝佳机会。与往年一样，CoNEXT 2014 将包括一个特殊的学生研讨会，让学生展示他们正在进行的工作，接收有关他们工作的反馈，并获得撰写和展示技术论文的宝贵经验。这项支持使原本无法参加 CoNEXT 2014 的主要会议和相关研讨会的学生能够参加。该项目通过参加计算机网络和通信领域的顶级技术会议，将学生的研究和教育结合起来。学生将有机会在主会议和相关研讨会上观看高质量的演讲并与各自领域的资深研究人员互动，他们的参与将对他们的研究质量产生积极影响。将特别鼓励妇女和其他少数群体参与。 CoNEXT会议已发展成为顶级国际会议，为学生提供了扩展该领域知识的巨大机会。
