Awards

EWG-DSS Awards

The “EWG-DSS-Award” was launched in 2011 as a motivating research initiative for young researchers to submit and present their work in one of the EWG-DSS annual organized workshops and conference streams.

The annual “EWG-DSS-Award” chooses the best and most innovative among submitted and presented work by students or young researchers, in the EWG-DSS organized workshops and conference streams of the same year, to be rewarded with a modest prize in money.

The EWG-DSS hopes to count with sponsorship from research funds and from the industrial sector to make the “EWG-DSS-Award” more financially appealing.  We hope you can support this initiative by financially sponsoring it if possible, or participating and/or disseminating this information among your students, colleagues, research partners and collaborators.
