SPS Awards: Procedural Changes The Society recently approved some procedural changes to the SPS Awards program. Please note that these changes are in effect for the 2013 nomination period. The changes are intended to provide an effective means to encourage awards nominations in all categories from the Signal Processing Society community-at-large, including individuals, technical committees, editorial boards and other major Boards, except in the cases of conflict of interests. Technical committees and boards may pass on to the Awards Board one or multiple endorsements on nominations that they receive for all awards. The paper awards nomination form now requests citation impact information. The Awards Board will continue to review the nominations and make selections on paper awards. For all major awards other than paper awards, the Awards Board will now be responsible for vetting the nominations and producing a short list of no more than three nominations per award. The Board of Governors will continue to vote on the selection of the major awards. A board or committee cannot nominate one of its members for an award. However, the board/committee member can be nominated by another board or committee. For full details on each award, please visit the Society’s website at http://www.signalprocessingsociety.org/awards-fellows/awardspage/. If you have any questions regarding the new process, please do not hesitate to contact John Treichler, Vice President-Awards and Membership at j.treichler@ieee.org.
