Technical Achievement Award

The IEEE TCCPS Technical Achievement Award recognizes significant and sustained contributions to the cyber-physical system (CPS) community through the IEEE Technical Committee on Cyber-Physical Systems (TCCPS). The award is based on the impact of high-quality research made by the awardee throughout the lifetime. It consists of a plaque and a citation.

• Call For Nomination (pdf)

Awardees:

• 2017: Alberto Sangiovanni-Vincentelli, University of California at Berkeley.
  ‘‘For pioneering contributions and leadership in cyber-physical systems and design automation.’’

Distinguished Leadership Award

The IEEE TCCPS Distinguished Leadership Award recognizes those individuals who have exhibited exemplary and substantive leadership of an extraordinary nature in implementing activities that support the cyber-physical system (CPS) community at the local, regional, national, and/or international level. The awardee is expected to make a distinguishing contribution to IEEE with “significant performance”. The award is based on volunteering for IEEE and the CPS community, instead of professional achievements. It consists of a plaque and a citation.
