Sigcomm is being held this year in New Delhi, India from August 30 through<br>
September 3. Several sources of grants are available for students and<br>
eligible faculty members/researchers from all across the globe.<br>
Support for SIGCOMM 2010 has been provided from the following<br>
organizations:<br>
1. NSF will continue the tradition of sponsoring a number of US-based<br>
graduate students. Support will also extend to a limited number of US-based<br>
postdoctoral scholars.<br>
2. Euro-NF funding is available for students studying in Euro-NF<br>
partner institutions<<a href="http://euronf.enst.fr/p_en_menu1_NFcommunit_396.html" target="_blank">http://euronf.enst.fr/p_en_menu1_NFcommunit_396.html</a>>.<br>
To qualify, a student must be a member of the Euro-NF team in a<br>
participating university and/or research center at the time of application.<br>
3. ACM Sigcomm GeoDiversity travel grants are available for attendees<br>
in their early career (at most five years of full-time, full-level,<br>
non-postdoc, post-PhD employment) from under-represented countries, based on<br>
need, distance to the conference venue, and impact of their attendance in<br>
increasing the diversity of conference participation.<br>
4. We are working on government support specifically for Indian<br>
students and researchers to attend Sigcomm. This includes PhD students,<br>
faculty and researchers at all universities in India.<br>
5. The Sigcomm Executive Committee and various corporate<br>
sponsors<<a href="http://conferences.sigcomm.org/sigcomm/2010/supporters.php" target="_blank">http://conferences.sigcomm.org/sigcomm/2010/supporters.php</a>> have<br>
provided additional support to increase support for attendees across all<br>
categories.<br>
