2018 IEEE CS TCSE Distinguished Service Award

Tom Zimmerman – Microsoft Research, USA

Tom Zimmerman’s leadership role in all the major software engineering conferences (ICSE, ICSME, FSE, ASE, and MSR), his tremendous amount of commitment to software engineering research (e.g., through organizing many workshops and Dagstuhl seminars), and his significant professional services (e.g., the EiC of the Empirical Software Engineering Journal, an AE of IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering, and IEEE Software), that clearly warranted this award.
