Description: The IEEE Control Systems Award was established by the IEEE Board of Directors in 1980, and may be presented annually on recommendation of the IEEE Awards Board. It is awarded for meritorious achievement or contributions to design, practice, techniques, or theory, as evidenced by publications or patents in the areas of control systems engineering, science, or technology.
