A limited number of travel assistance grants are available for all IPDPS 2014 student authors. They are administered by the IPDPS sponsor TCPP, the IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Parallel Processing. Priority will be given to students -based on merit- who would otherwise be unable to attend the conference and to graduate students presenting their own published work. Notice of grants awarded will be made prior to the conference.
There will be two submission dates for applications and announcement of awards:
- February 15, 2014
– Application deadline for all student authors in main conference & PhD Forum
- March 7, 2014
– Application deadline for all student authors in workshops
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.
To qualify for a student travel assistance grant, a recipient must be:
- author of an accepted conference, PhD forum, or workshop paper and be registered for the conference,
- Student Member of IEEE Computer Society at the time he/she submits an application, and
- full-time student regularly registered toward a degree in computer science, engineering or related field at a university.
