WALTER KOSONOCKY AWARD Recipients The IISS Walter Kosonocky Award
is presented bi-annually for THE BEST PAPER presented in any venue during the
prior two years representing significant advancement in solid-state image
sensors. The award commemorates the many important contributions made by the
late Dr. Walter
Kosonocky to the field of solid-state image
sensors. Personal tributes to Dr. Kosonocky appeared in the IEEE Transactions
on Electron Devices in 1997. Founded in 1997 by his
colleagues in industry, government and academia, the award is also funded by
proceeds from the International Image Sensor Workshop. The award committee solicits nominations
biennially. The award is announced and
presented at the Workshop. |
