To recognize (at most two) outstanding paper(s) published in the IEEE Transactions on Control of Network Systems. Historical Background: Established in 2015. Prize: A photo-engrave plaque for each recipient and, for one recipient, travel expenses to the CDC (round trip restricted minimal coach air fare, conference registration and up to 4 conference-rate hotel nights for a 3-day conference, and up to 5 conference-rate hotel nights for a 4-day conference). Funding: Funded by the IEEE Control Systems Society. Presentation: At most one (1) award is presented annually at the Awards Ceremony of the CSS. Basis for Judging: The basis for judging shall be originality, potential impact on the foundations of network systems, importance and practical significance in applications, and clarity. Eligibility: Papers published in the IEEE Transactions on Control of Network Systems during the two calendar years preceding the year of the award. Once a paper receives the IEEE Transactions on Control of Network Systems Best Paper Award, it is no longer eligible to be considered for this award in subsequent years. The paper publication date is determined by the journal volume date (not the online publication date). Nomination Details: The Nomination Form, which describes the excellence of the nominated paper, can be downloaded from the link below. The completed Nomination Form must be submitted through the IEEE Control Systems Society Awards nomination system (http://awards.paperplaza.net/) by May 15. All submissions must comply with the Nomination Instructions available at the link below.
