Awards Nomination Process
Award candidates have been selected among papers submitted by Master/PhD student(s) or postDoc (with the PhD completed over the last two years), with or without the supervisor among the authors, which received an average review score higher than 2. The main selection criteria have been indicated in the originality and innovativity of the contribution. In case of a tie, the award has been assigned to the paper with the youngest author(s).
The selection committee of CLiC-it 2016 Awards was formed by the CLiC-it Program Chairs together with the AILC executive Board, for a total of 10 researchers. Each committee member has been asked to assign a score ranging from 1 to 5 to each candidate paper, excluding co-authored papers.
