Dahl-Nygaard Prize

Dahl-Nygaard Prize

The Dahl-Nygaard Prize is awarded annually to a senior researcher with outstanding career contributions and a younger researcher who has demonstrated great potential. The senior prize is recognized as one of the most prestigious prizes in the area of Software Engineering though it is a relatively new prize.

The winners of both awards are announced at the European Conference on Object Oriented Programming (ECOOP). The prizes are named after Ole-Johan Dahl and Kristen Nygaard, two pioneers in the area of programming and simulation. The prize was created by Association Internationale pour les Technologies Objets (AITO) in 2004.

The recipients of the prize are:

  • 2011, Lancaster: Craig Chambers (senior prize) and Atsushi Igarashi (junior prize)
  • 2010, Maribor: Doug Lea (senior prize) and Erik Ernst (junior prize)
  • 2009, Genoa: David Ungar (senior prize)
  • 2008, Paphos: Akinori Yonezawa (senior prize) and Wolfgang De Meuter (junior prize)
  • 2007, Berlin: Luca Cardelli (senior prize) and Jonathan Aldrich (junior prize)
  • 2006, Nantes: Erich Gamma, Richard Helm, Ralph Johnson, and (posthumously) John Vlissides
  • 2005, Glasgow: Bertrand Meyer (senior prize) and Gail Murphy (junior prize)
