AI Journal - Classic and Prominent Paper Awards

The AI Journal is pleased to announce two awards for papers published in the journal:

- The AIJ Classic Paper Award recognizes outstanding papers published
  at least 15 calendar years ago in the AI Journal that are
  exceptional in their significance and impact.

- The AIJ Prominent Paper Award recognizes outstanding papers
  published not more than five years ago in the AI Journal that are
  exceptional in their significance and impact.

Nominations are now solicited for papers published in AIJ between 2009
and 2014 for the 2014 Prominent Paper award. For the Classic Paper
award, due to the large number of papers published in AIJ since 1970,
the AIJ Awards Committee adopts the following rolling sliding window
scheme: until we reach a steady state, only papers published in a
window of 10 years, starting 1970, with a sliding window of 5 years,
will be eligible. This gives

2014: 1975-1984
2015: 1980-1989
2016: 1985-1994
2017: 1990-1999
2017: steady state, all papers published 15 years ago are eligible from now on.

So for this year, eligible papers for the Classic Paper award are
those published in AIJ between 1975 and 1984.

The nomination deadline is 9 May 2014. Information about the format
of nominations and the evaluation criteria for these two awards can be
