<\/i><\/span><\/i><\/span>The Phil Andrews Most Transformative Contribution Award<\/span><\/i><\/div>

\"\"The PEARC19 Executive Committee dedicates its flagship award to Dr. Phil Andrews (1956-2011).\u00a0A pioneer in advanced computing infrastructure for more than 25 years, Phil brought tremendous passion and creative energy to NICS, PSC, SDSC, TeraGrid and XSEDE. With degrees in physics, mathematics, and plasma physics from Cambridge, Purdue, and Princeton Universities. He was experienced in artificial intelligence, visualization, archiving, digital libraries, and computational medicine. During his career, Andrews authored approximately 40 papers on distributed and data-intensive computing and visualization techniques, theoretical plasma physics and nonlinear dynamics.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

The award has\u00a0been\u00a0made for a\u00a0paper submission deemed to be most influential and impactful within its area of research computing, broadly interpreted, including leading-edge scientific research as well as the development of innovative computational techniques. Determination of the\u00a0Phil Andrews Most Transformative Contribution award\u00a0is made by the Technical Program subcommittee jury from the best papers awarded in each of the technical tracks and therefore will represent \u201cThe Best of the Best.\u201d The award will be presented\u00a0at the PEARC19 Conference awards luncheon.<\/p>

<\/i><\/span><\/i><\/span>Best Technical Paper Awards<\/span><\/i><\/div>

The winners of the best paper and honorable mention paper awards were selected by independent juries (separate ones for each conference track and for the Phil Andrews award) from among the most highly-rated papers in the conference\u2019s peer review process. The juries deemed the winning manuscripts to be comprehensively well rounded, reflective of deep understanding of the subject areas discussed, and of very high quality overall. Multiple specific criteria were considered by the juries, depending on the track and topic of each paper, including potential influence on the state of the practice, potential impact on computation-based science, novelty, use of appropriate data and analysis methodologies, and clarity of presentation.<\/p>
