From arun at cs.umass.edu Thu Oct 1 16:34:07 2009 From: arun at cs.umass.edu (V. Arun) Date: Thu, 1 Oct 2009 19:34:07 -0400 Subject: [sigcomm] CoNEXT 2009 student travel grants Message-ID: <2D210CF7-37D3-4769-B5E9-3A8A46457EB3@cs.umass.edu> http://conferences.sigcomm.org/co-next/2009/grants.php CoNEXT 2009 Student Travel Grants With support from the U.S. National Science Foundation and AT&T, ACM CoNEXT 2009 will provide a limited number of grants to students to attend the main conference as well as to participate in the ACM CoNEXT 2009 Student Workshop. Requests for travel support should be submitted via the CoNEXT 2009 Student Travel Grant Applications website by no later than Monday, 12th October 2009. The student should submit the following material: A resume, as a PDF file, and a cover letter providing: A short statement (e.g., a couple paragraphs) indicating how the student would benefit from attending ACM CoNEXT 2009. A brief summary (e.g., a couple paragraphs) of research interests and accomplishments. An indication of whether the student has submitted a paper to the ACM CoNEXT 2009 conference or an abstract to the ACM CoNEXT 2009 Student Workshop. Approximate estimated travel costs to the conference. The name and email address of the nominator, who will be providing a letter of recommendation (see below). Each student should arrange for his/her nominator (or a faculty contact if the student does not yet have a nominator) to submit a letter of recommendation. The applicant must provide the nominator's contact email address in the application, and the nominator will receive an email request to submit the letter of recommendation. It is the responsibility of the student to ensure that the nominator's letter of recommendation is submitted by the due date -applications missing the nominator's letter of recommendation will not be considered. The letter of recommendation from the nominator must: Confirm that the student is in good standing at his/her University. Comment on the strengths and potential contributions of the student. Indicate why travel grant support is necessary for the student to attend the conference, and indicate the extent to which the nominator can complement the travel grant to enable the student to attend the conference. Given the limited availability of travel grant support, the travel awards will not cover the full amount required to attend the conference and the student workshop. In particular, conference and workshop registration costs will not be covered, while hotel and flight expenses will be covered to the extent possible. Award amounts are expected to not exceed $1000. As most of the student travel funding support comes from NSF, as per NSF policy, US students will have to fly with a US-based carrier to be eligible for reimbursement. Strongest consideration will be given to applications that can both demonstrate need for the travel grant, and willingness to complement the grant through other sources. CoNEXT encourages the participation of women and under-represented minorities. In making Student Travel Grant decisions, students with accepted posters or presentations at the ACM CoNext 2009 Student Workshop will be prioritized. However, the Committee strongly prefers students who are not authors of a conference paper or of a ReArch or U-NET workshop paper (the Committee believes the authors' home organizations should cover costs for authors). Submission Deadline: Monday, October 12, 2009. Notification: Travel awards will be announced on or around Friday, October 23, 2009. Those students who have been awarded a travel grant must complete the ACM Reimbursement Request Form and return it to ACM as per the administrative procedure outlined in their Award Letter. Questions regarding the Student Travel Grants may be addressed to the Student Travel Grant Chairs Arun Venkataramani (arun at cs.umass.edu) and Luis Costa (luish at gta.ufrj.br). -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Given the volume of mail, if I were to set it down to anything lower (weekly or daily), the result would be equivalent to one digest mail per post. This defeats the purpose of the digest, i.e., to reduce the number of received mails. You might consider instead changing your configuration to receive individual posts rather than digests. This should have the desired effect. Joe (as list admin) Cedric J A. Westphal wrote: > To the person running this list: Could the digest be sent in a daily > manner?
