Project Members Win Second ISI Meritorious Service Award
All six members of the ISI team in the CSC project members received a meritorious service award from Herb Schorr, the Director of USC Information Sciences Institute “for gaining recognition for ISI as the ‘predominant force’ in distributed planning and scheduling through outstanding performance on DARPA’s second competitive evaluation”. The picture below includes (from left to right) Jing Jin, Pedro Szekely, Rajiv Maheswaran, Herb Schorr, Romeo Sanchez, Craig Rogers and Nader Noori. In addition to the award, we each get spiffy plaques and a gift certificate for the cuisine of our choice. Herb Schorr suggested that we could spend it all on $1 burgers or something more substantial. I think we’re going to go for the latter. We are currently “coordinating” to choose a time and place to celebrate.
