The Statistical Computing and Graphics Award
The ASA Sections of Statistical Computing and Statistical Graphics have
established the Statistical Computing and Graphics Award to recognize an
individual or team for innovation in computing, software, or graphics
that has had a great impact on statistical practice or research.
The prize carries with it a cash award of $5,000 plus an allowance of up
to $1,000 for travel to the annual Joint Statistical Meetings (JSM)
where the award will be presented.
The prize-winning contribution will have had significant and lasting
impact on statistical computing, software or graphics. The Awards
Committee depends on the American Statistical Association membership to
submit nominations. Committee members will review the nominations and
make the final determination of who, if any, should receive the award.
The award may not be given to a sitting member of the Awards Committee
or a sitting member of the Executive Committee of the Section of
Statistical Computing or the Section of Statistical Graphics.
Nominations are due by December 15, 2015. The award will be presented
at the Joint Statistical Meetings in August 2016.
Nominations should be submitted as a complete packet, consisting of:
* nomination letter, no longer than four pages, addressing the impact of
the nominee's contribution
* nominee's curriculum vita(e)
