I apologize for the typo in the original announcement. The deadline for
the submission of nomination is, of course, in 2014. Because of the typo,
the deadline is now April 7th. Please consider nominating distinguished
researchers.
The full call is repeated below:
Call for Prize Nominations: Prize for Innovation in Distributed Computing
Awarded by the Colloquium on Structural Information and Communication
Complexity (SIROCCO).
The Prize for Innovation In Distributed Computing was established to
recognize individuals whose research contributions expanded the collective
investigative horizon in SIROCCO's area of interest. That is, they
formulated new problems, or identified new research areas, that were at
the time of their introduction, unorthodox and outside the mainstream, but
later attracted the interest of the SIROCCO community.
This community is interested in the relationships between information and
efficiency in decentralized computing. The prize recognizes originality,
innovation, and creativity -- the qualities that reflect the spirit of the
SIROCCO conference.
SIROCCO 2014 is going to be held on July 23 - 25, 2014, Hida Takayama,
Japan; papers submission deadline is April 25, 2014; invited speakers are:
Yuval Emek, Friedhelm Meyer auf der Heide, Rotem Oshman, Gopal
Pandurangan, and Michel Raynal. The prize winner too will be invited to
give a presentation at SIROCCO.
The prize is presented at the annual meeting of the SIROCCO conference, but
may not necessarily be awarded every year.
Past prize winners are Nicola Santoro, Jean-Claude Bermond, David Peleg,
Roger Wattenhofer, and Andrzej Pelc.
Eligibility
The following conditions must be met by the nominees to be eligible for
the prize.
(1) The original innovative contribution was introduced by the nominee(s)
for the first time in a publication at least five years before the
nomination deadline, and the publication must have appeared in a
conference proceedings or a scientific journal.
(2) At least one paper (co)authored by the nominee(s), either the original
paper, or a paper very related to the innovative contribution, must have
appeared in a SIROCCO proceedings.
Past SIROCCO papers and authors can be found at indexing sites, e.g. Google
Scholar or
http://secure-web.cisco.com/auth=11z-X8EvXNFceuO3HudKPU7iL_n6Bx&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.informatik.uni-trier.de%2F%7Eley%2Fdb%2Fconf%2Fsirocco%2Findex.html.
Selection process
The prize winners are selected by the Award Committee composed of the
current Steering Committee (SC) Chair of the SIROCCO conference, the PC
chairs, including co-chairs, of the three SIROCCO conferences immediately
preceding the nominations deadline, plus one additional member of the
Advisory Board, or one past winner, selected by the Steering Committee for
the current year.
In 2014, the Award Committee consists of: Guy Even (Tel Aviv University),
Shay Kutten (Technion)- chair, Thomas Moscibroda (Microsoft),
Andrzej Pelc (Universite du Quebec en Outaouais), and Masafumi Yamashita
(Kyushu University).
A call for nomination is disseminated every year in the main mailing lists
of the Distributed Computing community, at least four months prior to the
date of that year's SIROCCO meeting.
Nominations can be made by any member of the scientific community. Each
nomination must identify the person(s) being nominated, and justify the
nomination by a short text including:
(a) a brief description of the innovative contribution in Distributed
Computing to be recognized by the award, and an explanation of its
originality and significance,
(b) the paper(s) of the nominee(s) that establish their eligibility as
described in the Eligibility section above items (1) and (2).
Nominations for 2014 should be sent to the Steering Committee chair of
SIROCCO: kutten@ie.technion.ac.il by April 3rd, 2014. PLEASE write SIROCCO
Prize Nomination IN THE SUBJECT LINE.
