Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, liebe Sprecherinnen und Sprecher der GI-Fachbereiche,

anbei finden Sie die aktuellen Ausschreibungen für Preise der ACM. Erfahrungsgemäß ist Europa unter den Preisträgern nicht besonders gut vertreten. Es wäre also schön, wenn es aus Ihren Reihen, den Reihen Ihrer Gliederungssprecher oder Kollegen Einreichungen und/oder Nominierungen geben würde. Bitte verteilen Sie diese Übersicht deshalb möglichst breit. Wir werden sie auch in unseren sozialen Netzwerken streuen. Vielen Dank.

Mit herzlichen Grüßen
