TCPP/IPDPS 2010 Student Travel Grants

Recipients of student travel grant awards have been notified by email. Those who did not receive a grant in this first round will remain on the applicant list should additional funds become available.

A limited number of travel assistance grants are available from the IPDPS sponsor TCPP, the IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Parallel Processing. Priority will be given to students who would otherwise be unable to attend the conference and to graduate students presenting their own published work. Notice of awards will be made prior to the conference. The grants will be distributed post-conference in the form of reimbursements against actual travel, registration and accommodations expenses submitted by the student. The amount of the grants will be based in part on student travel requirements, quality of paper/poster, and on TCPP funds availability. Notification of awards will be made by the end of February.

To qualify for a student travel assistance grant, a recipient must be:

• an author of an accepted conference, PhD forum, or workshop paper and be registered for the conference,
• a Student Member of IEEE Computer Society at the time he/she submits an application, and
