ICMMES Awards

There are at least three awards given out at ICMMES Conference each year since 2016:

  • The ICMMES-Sugon Award for Young Scientists sporsored by Sugon, a supercomputing company in China;
  • The ICMMES-CSRC Award for Recent PhD Recipients sponsored by Beijing Computational Science Research Center, a research establishment in China,
  • and (c) The ICMMES-MDPI Award for Best Poster, sponsored by Computation, an open access computational science journal.

The awards are aiming at supporting young scientists working in the ICMMES' focused areas. The winners are selected by a selection committee appointed by the ICMMES Scientific Committee and the local organizing committee. The awards were given by one of Co-Chairs of the ICMMES scientific committee, and the Chair of the ICMMES local organizing committee, at the end of each ICMMES Conference.

This year (2017), the ICMMES-MDPI Award for Best Poster was given to Lucien Vienne, Simon Marié, and Francesco Grasso, from Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers, Laboratoire DynFluid, France, for their poster "Lattice Boltzmann simulation of a multicomponent viscous fingering instability at high Schmidt number".

The other two awards, the ICMMS-Sugon Award and the ICMMES-CSRC Award, were not given in 2017.

 

 

The ICMMES-Sugon Award for Young Scientists

The ICMMES-Sugon Award is given to young scientists (up to 6 years after his/her PhD defense) working in the ICMMES' focused areas, with an emphasis on, but not limited to, HPC related applications. The award includes US$1000 plus a waive of registration fees to attend ICMMES conference
