Subject: [FME Events] FME Fellowship Award -- Call for Nominations

FME FELLOWSHIP AWARD

Given every three years for technical achievements in advancing, applying, and
promoting formal methods, the FME fellowship rewards scientific breakthroughs
and pioneering work that have made a difference to the world through advances
in formal methods. This includes contributions in the following areas:

• Solid theoretical work.
• Development of frameworks and tools.
• Teaching formal methods.
• Industrial applications.
• Publicising formal methods worldwide and attracting people to the community.

The recipient of the fellowship will clearly have made a difference in one or
more of these areas, and this will be supported by concrete evidence.

The FME Awards Committee (named below) will take nominations from FME members
and make a recommendation to the FME Board. The chosen nominee will be invited
to attend the FME symposium, when he or she will be presented with the award,
including a certificate and a medal, and be invited to present an account of
their work.

The first FME fellow was Cliff Jones, who received his award during FM 2015
(www.fmeurope.org/?p=534). Jones is one of the world’s most distinguished
computer scientists, with an outstanding international reputation for his
research and leadership in the discipline, where he has a unique record of
major contributions to academia, to industry, to policy, and of service.
