    Student Travel Grant
    IFIP WG 7.3 Performance 2017 is pleased to continue its practice of offering student travel grants to subsidize travel costs for attending the conference. The number and amounts of the awards will depend on the number of applications received, available funds, and proximity of applicants to the venue. The purpose of this grant is to help defray the travel and lodging costs, and not the conference registration fee. The decisions will be made by a committee consisting of the general chairs, and a representative of the Computer Performance Foundation.
    To apply for travel grant, please send email to performance17@lists.cs.columbia.edu. In your email, please include the following:
    1. A short paragraph explaining why you want to attend PERFORMANCE and any prior association with PERFORMANCE.
    2. A CV or resume, or just a pointer to your website.
    3. A short paragraph from your advisor stating that you are a student in good standing.
    4. Your physical address and email.

     DEADLINE FOR STUDENT TRAVEL GRANT APPLICATION: October 9, 2017
     TRAVEL GRANT AWARD NOTIFICATION: October 15, 2017
