Call for applications
Frank Anger Memorial ACM SIGBED/SIGSOFT Student Award
Deadline: Aug 30, 2006

Recently, ACM established a student award in the name of late Dr. Frank
Anger
to promote cross-disciplinary research between embedded systems and
software engineering.


SIGBED solicits applications from qualified student members. To qualify
for the SIGBED award, a student must:

- Be undertaking research in embedded systems in a graduate program in
an accredited college or university.

- Be author on a paper accepted for presentation at a SIGBED-sponsored
conference (such as EMSOFT and IPSN) in 2005 or 2006

- Be a member of SIGBED (check ACM SIGBED website on how to join, if you
are not a member)

The application should be sent by email to SIGBED chair
(alur@xxxxxxxxxxxxx) by Aug 30, 2006, and should consist of:

- A synopsis of research that the student is pursuing (2 paragraphs,
with pointer to at least one publication at a SIGBED sponsored meeting
during 2005/2006)

- A proposal to attend SIGSOFT conference (such as FSE or ICSE) in which
the student discusses the potential for crossover in
ideas between the student’s research and research in software (2
paragraphs limit)

- An email from the student's research advisor confirming that the
student is in good standing and pursuing the research described in the
proposal.

The selection will be done by the SIGBED executive committee based on
the student's research record and relevance to the cross-disciplinary
spirit of the award.
The award will be presented during SIGBED business meeting during the
ESWEEK in Seoul in October 2006.
The award will consist of a certificate, and upto $2000 to cover
expenses of the student to attend the chosen SIGSOFT meeting during the
next year.
