Abstract

The International Symposium on Networks-on-Chip (NOCS) is the premier event dedicated to interdisciplinary research on on-chip, chip-scale, and multichip package scale communication technology, architecture, design methods, applications and systems. NOCS brings together scientists and engineers working on NoC innovations and applications from inter-related research communities, including computer architecture, networking, circuits and systems, packaging, embedded systems, and design automation. NOCS has established itself as the premier conference in this area. With these funds from this student travel grant, the conference organizers will be able to provide 10-15 travel grants to students, who may otherwise not be able to attend NOCS and take advantage of the available learning opportunities in this evolving research area. The grant recipients will be expected to report their learning experiences once the conference is over. Special efforts will be made by personal contacts to recruit student participants who are underrepresented minorities (i.e., African-Americans, Hispanics, Native Americans, and Native Pacific Islanders) and/or women, coming from diverse institutions.
