USENIX Test of Time Awards | USENIX

The USENIX Test of Time Awards recognize papers that have had a lasting impact on their fields. To qualify, a paper must have been presented at its respective conference at least 10 years ago. Steering committees and past program chairs from USENIX conferences determine the award winners. FAST, NSDI, and the USENIX Security Symposium encourage nominations from the community for these awards. Please check the upcoming symposium's webpage for information about how to submit a nomination.
