I regret to announce that the IJCAI-87 Awards Committee,
having considered all the candidates nominated for the Research
Excellence Award, have decided not to make an award.
The Award is given in recognition of an Artificial
Intelligence scientist who has carried out a program of research of
consistently high quality yielding several substantial results. The
first recipient of this award was John McCarthy in 1985. In the
opinion of the Awards Committee none of the ReSent-Date: Fri 6 Mar 87 22:17:14-PST

THE 1987 IJCAI AWARD FOR RESEARCH EXCELLENCE
I regret to announce that the IJCAI-87 Awards Committee,
having considered all the candidates nominated for the Research
Excellence Award, have decided not to make an award.
The Award is given in recognition of an Artificial
Intelligence scientist who has carried out a program of research of
consistently high quality yielding several substantial results. The
first recipient of this award was John McCarthy in 1985. In the
opinion of the Awards Committee none of the nominated candidates
reached the high standard required. Several members of the Committee
afterwards suggested candidates that, in their opinion, did reach the
required standard, but who had not been nominated.
Nominations for the Award were invited from all in the
artificial intelligence international community. The Award Committee
was the union of the Programme, Conference and Advisory Committees of
IJCAI-87 and the Board of Trustees of IJCAII, with nominees excluded.
It is the sincere hope of all the Committee that, in future
years, a greater effort will be made by the artificial intelligence
community to nominate suitable candidates.
