Presburger Award
Starting in 2010, the European Association of Theoretical Computer Science (EATCS) confers each year at the conference ICALP the Presburger Award to a young scientist (in exceptional cases to several young scientists) for outstanding contributions in theoretical computer science, documented by a published paper or a series of published papers. The award is named after Mojzesz Presburger who accomplished his path-breaking work on decidability of the theory of addition (which today is called Presburger arithmetic) as a student in 1929.
Nominations
Nominations for the Presburger Award can be submitted by any member or group of members of the theoretical computer science community except the nominee and their advisors for the master thesis and the doctoral dissertation. Nominated scientists have to be young scientists by January 1st of the year of the nomination, by living up to at least one of the following:
