Basis for Judging
Quality, originality, utility, timeliness, clarity of presentation.
Nominee Solicitation
Nominations solicited by Transactions Editor-in-Chief from the Editorial Board, Guest Editors, and readership (through published notices).
Selection Process
Nominations screened and reduced to a shortlist by a committee of the Editorial Board and submitted to the IEEE Communications Society Awards Committee for final selection.
Presentation
Annually (as soon as possible after recommendation). If in any year no eligible paper is deemed to be of sufficient quality, no award will be given.
Deadline
Nominations due 15 February unless otherwise noted.
