This is a reminder of the upcoming nomination deadline for the A.W. Tucker
Prize. Please see below.

=======================

Dear Colleagues,

The Mathematical Optimization Society invites nominations for the 2024 A.W.
Tucker Prize to be awarded at the International Symposium on Mathematical
Programming (ISMP) in Montreal, Canada (July 21 - 26, 2024). The prize is
awarded to an outstanding doctoral dissertation defended (and degree
awarded) between January 1, 2021 and January 1, 2024.

The deadline for nominations is January 15, 2024. The nominator must be a
faculty member at the institution that awarded the nominee's doctoral
degree or a member of the nominee's dissertation committee. Applications
should consist of the following four files, each of which should be
submitted as a single, separate PDF file:

- a letter of nomination,
- the nominee's dissertation,
- a summary of the dissertation's contributions, written by the nominee,
that is no more than five (5) pages in length, and
- a brief biographical sketch of the nominee.

Nominations and the accompanying documentation must be written in English.
The nomination should be e-mailed to Frank E. Curtis,
frank.e.curtis@lehigh.edu

The call for nominations is also announced on the MOS website:
http://www.mathopt.org/?nav=tucker_call

Nominations will be evaluated by the 2024 A.W. Tucker Prize Committee with
at most three finalists chosen for the prize. The finalists will be
invited to give oral presentations of their work at a special session of
ISMP 2024. The winner will be announced during the symposium.
