IEEE Computer Society Technical Council on Software Engineering (TCSE) rewarded his pioneering leadership in education for four decades (e.g., through the development of a curriculum in software engineering in the mid 1980’s, his famous software engineering text book published in 1991) and his exceptional mentorship for many graduate students who became the main educators in software engineering throughout in Europe, which very clearly warranted this award.

The award will be presented at ICSE 2018 in Gothenburg, Sweden.
