One prize is awarded to a junior researcher (who has obtained the PhD
degree at most 7 years before the award year, excluding any parental leave),
and one prize to a senior researcher. The senior researcher should
have made a significant long-term contribution to the field in research
or engineering. The junior researcher should have made a promising
contribution to the field through a paper, a thesis, or a prototype
implementation.
