Description
Started in 1994, the ACM SIGAda Awards recognize individuals and organizations
that have made outstanding contributions to the Ada community and to SIGAda.
The two categories of awards are:
Outstanding Ada Community Contribution Award
-- For broad, lasting contributions to Ada technology & usage.
ACM SIGAda Distinguished Service Award
-- For exceptional contributions to SIGAda activities & products.
The ACM SIGAda Award Committee (volunteers who have previously won an award)
selects recipients from nominations submitted by SIGAda membership and
other members of the Ada community.
SIGAda awards (in the form of the statuette of Lady Lovelace pictured
above) are typically presented at the SIGAda conference each fall, with
nominations closing approximately one month before the conference.
