(July 23, 2006)--College of Computing Alumna Dr. Annie Antón will be recognized at the 2006 IEEE International Requirements Engineering Conference (RE’06) for a paper she published at the annual conference in 1996 while earning her Ph.D.

According to Martin Glinz, RE'06 Program Chair, the conference has a tradition of giving an award for the most influential paper published in the conference ten years ago.  This year's award is given for the most influential paper of ICRE 1996, which was held April 15-18, 1996 in Colorado Springs, CO.
 
Antón’s paper, entitled "Goal-Based Requirements Analysis", was one of two selected by the RE'06 Program Board to be recognized with this special award.
 
Such an award is significant in that it speaks to both the overall quality of the work, as well as its impact to the field over time.
 
The awards ceremony will be held on Thursday, September 14 in Minneapolis, MN. For more information about RE’06, click here.
