IEEE HOLM
CONFERENCE ON ELECTRICAL CONTACTS
ERLE SHOBERT
PRIZE PAPER
The Holm
Conference Prize Paper Award was established in 1970. At that time, the Conference Steering
Committee recognized that at each Conference
there was at least one paper that stood out from the others in its technical
content and quality of presentation.
Therefore, the Prize Paper Award
Committee was established. The
Committee’s purpose is to review each paper, listen to each presentation and
then judge which paper should receive the Prize Paper Award. The award is presented to the authors of
the Prize Paper at the following year’s Holm Conference.
