And The Government Pays For That?
Today is a very good day: a joint paper that my Master's advisor submitted with myself and another grad student was accepted to this December's CDC '03. And since my advisor thinks it would be a good experience for me to present a paper at a conference, I get to go. And, since presenting research results is covered by our grant, all the big expenses will be paid.
So, to recap: In exchange for presenting a 6 page paper to a room full of people who are smarter than I am, I get a 5-day all expense paid vacation in the middle of the winter.
Oh, and did I mention that the conference is being held in Hawaii?
