***Dahl-Nygaard Prize 2014 - Request for Nominations***
The AITO Dahl-Nygaard Prize Committee hereby requests nominations for the
Dahl-Nygaard Prize which is awarded annually to individuals that have made
significant technical contributions to the field of Object-Orientation. The
prize is named after Ole-Johan Dahl and Kristen Nygaard whose pioneering
conceptual and technical work in the sixties shaped that view of programming
and modeling which is now known as object-orientation. The prize will be
presented at the ECOOP conference in 2014. A full list of previous winners and
the statutes of the prize are available at:
http://www.aito.org/Dahl-Nygaard/.
The prize consists of two awards given to a junior researcher (at most 7 years
after obtaining the PhD degree at the time of nomination) and a senior
researcher. The senior researcher should have made a significant long-term
contribution to the field in research or engineering. The junior researcher
should have made a promising contribution to the field through a paper, a
thesis, or a prototype implementation.
The deadline for nominations is September 30th, 2013.
Please send your nominations by email to dahl-nyga...@aito.org along with a
short motivation, using the subject 'Dahl-Nygaard junior nomination' or
'Dahl-Nygaard senior nomination'.
PS: Did you supervise a brilliant PhD student a few years ago? Then consider a
DN junior prize nomination!
