The SIAG/DS Crawford Prize
The SIAM Activity Group on Dynamical Systems will present the J. D. Crawford Prize at the SIAM Conference on Applications of Dynamical Systems to be held at Snowbird, May 28 - June 1, 2007.
The Crawford Prize is awarded every two years for recent outstanding work on a topic in dynamical systems and nonlinear science, as evidenced by a publication in English in a peer-reviewed journal within the four calendar years preceding the award date. The term "nonlinear science" is used in the spirit of the SIAG/DS meetings; specifically it includes dynamical systems theory and its applications as well as experiments and computations/simulations.
