ICALEPCS Awards

ICALEPCS Lifetime Achievement Award
 

The ICALEPCS Lifetime Achievement Award is meant to honor an individual (or individuals) who throughout their careers have made invaluable and lasting contributions to the field of control systems for large experimental physics facilities. The scope of this award reaches beyond the successful completion of a single project or even several projects. The aim is to recognize those who through their vision, leadership, technical excellence, and a willingness to think beyond a single laboratory or even a country have influenced the international practice of control system development.

Due to the nature of the award, it will not necessarily be presented at every ICALEPCS. This is meant as a recognition and celebration of exceptional and career-long contribution and as such it should be awarded only when such individuals have been clearly identified.

1. The ICALEPCS Lifetime Achievement Award (LAA) is a special tribute given to a person in recognition of a career with significant highlights in the advancement of the field of Controls in large, experimental physics, facilities.
2. The award is seen as recognizing specific contributions and not just for longevity.
3. The candidate does not have to be active in the field at the time of the award.
4. The LAA may be given at each ICALEPCS conference but if no individuals were identified as qualified candidates then no award would be given.
5. There is no monetary component.
6. Sponsoring and related societies will be notified of the presentation of the award so that an appropriate recognition is received.

ICALEPCS Early Career Award
 

The ICALEPCS Early Career Award will be granted every two years at the biennial International Conference on Accelerator and Large Experimental Physics Control Systems (ICALEPCS). The ICALEPCS Award is conferred to one early career (defined by university degree awarded within the last ten years) controls systems professionals who made exceptional contributions in the field of Control and data acquisition Systems in large scientific installations.

The prize will consist of a certificate and a potential financial contribution. Only works that are original and published can be considered in the proposals for candidates to the prize.

1. The ICALEPCS Award is given to a person in the advancement of the field of Controls in large, experimental physics facilities.
2. There is no limit in age, but the candidates shall be new (less than 10 years) in the field and in the community at the time of the award.
3. It is awarded every two years at the ICALEPCS conference.
4. There may be a monetary component subjected to the budget and the criteria of the Local Organizing Committee of the conference.

1. The ICALEPCS Leadership in Mentoring Award is an acknowledgment given to a person in recognition of a leadership as a mentor and inspiration to the new generations in the field of Control and data acquisitions systems in large scientific installations.
2. The award may be given at each ICALEPCS conference, but if no individuals were identified as qualified candidates, no award would be given.
3. There is no monetary component
