Call for nominations: Game theory and computer science Prize

At the recent game theory conference in Jerusalem in honor of Ehud Kalai, a new Prize in Game Theory and Computer Science was announced by the Society in recognition of Ehud's role in promoting this exciting new area of research. The prize will be awarded at each of the next three World Congresses to the person (or persons) who have published the best paper at the interface of game theory and computer science in recent years. The amount of the Prize will be $2000 plus travel expenses to attend the Congress.

The Society invites nominations for the prize, which will be awarded for the first time at the upcoming World Congress at Northwestern University (July 13-17, 2008). Nominations should be emailed to the Society's Secretary-Treasurer, Eric van Damme (at gts at uvt.nl ), by 15 February 2008.
