2017 SIGMOBILE OUTSTANDING CONTRIBUTIONS AWARD: Norman Abramson

摘要

Dr. Norman Abramson is the 2017 SIGMOBILE Outstanding Contributions Award recipient, granted for significant and lasting contributions to the research on mobile computing and communications and wireless networking. There are few instances in the world of science and technology where one individual and one idea have produced such a monumental impact on an array of problems in practice as well as in fundamental theory. For that reason, many of us would be puzzled by the fact that Dr. Abramson has not received this award yet. Many of us had simply assumed that he must have received this honor already!
