About the Wilkes Award
The Wilkes Award is given for the best paper published in a volume of The Computer Journal. It is awarded in January each year to the author or authors of one paper appearing in the previous volume (year). The Award consists of some £500 purchase vouchers from Oxford University Press and a medal for the winner, and some £100 purchase vouchers for the runner-up.
The Wilkes Award is named after Sir Maurice Wilkes, who was Director of the Cambridge Computer Laboratory throughout the whole development of stored program computers starting with EDSAC; inventor of labels, macros and microprogramming; with David Wheeler and Stanley Gill, the inventor of a programming system based on subroutines.
Criteria for the Award are originality and quality of theme and treatment. The judgement is made by the Editor-in-Chief and a sub-committee of the Editorial Board.
