Bézier Award

The Pierre Bézier Award is the most prestigious award of the Solid Modeling Association. The award may be given to an individual or group of individuals nominated for contributions of a technical and leadership nature made to solid, geometric or physical modeling and applications. The contributions should be of lasting and major technical importance. The Pierre Bézier Award may be given to a single person for their lifetime achievements; or to a group of people for their particular result or accomplishments.

Individuals or teams can be nominated. All nominations received in the current year and top nominations retained from previous years (upon recommendation from previous years committees) will be rigorously reviewed by the Pierre Bézier Award jury. The individual awardee or team will be chosen by the Pierre Bézier Award Committee based on the strength of the nomination dossier and possibly the inputs of the external referees that the committee may contact. Joint nominations, submitted jointly by several nominators of international stature, are encouraged.
