Nominations are invited, with a deadline of 31 July 2012.
Assessment and Judging will take place during August/September, with the winner(s) being announced at an awards event in October. The CCS Committee has appointed the Judging Panel for the 2012 Award; this will be chaired by Brian Oakley. The Judging Panel reserves the right not to make an award.
Assessment and Judging Criteria
The following criteria will help the judges in their assessment of the projects:
- Completeness : Has the project achieved the initial goals set – assuming a plan was followed?
- Originality : To what extent is this the result of original effort (e.g. the Colossus rebuild was the first rebuild)?
- Outreach : Is the result of the work visible to experts in the field and/or to the general public? If not, might it be turned into a (museum) exhibit for display?
- Ingenuity: What new techniques or processes were developed during the project?
- Impact : What contribution has the work made to growing the understanding of the history of computing?
- Publicity : To what extent has the work already been publicised or written up?
- Discovery :What was the extent of the research done to re-discover the past?
