The award recognizes a candidate’s research output produced during the early stages of their career. To be eligible, a candidate’s most recent computer-related educational degree (baccalaureate, master’s, or doctoral degree) must have been awarded on or after January 1, 2018. If the degree included a defense, the defense must have occurred on or after January 1, 2018. If the degree included a thesis but did not require a defense, then the final submission of the thesis must have occurred on or after January 1, 2018. The award is named after Dr. Ric Holt (1941 – 2019) who was a professor at the University of Waterloo and made foundational contributions to our field, including organizing the 1st International Workshop on Mining Software Repositories in 2004.</p> <p>The eligibility period may be extended under the following scenarios:</p> <ul> <li>Extended sickness leave or part-time employment as a result of ongoing childcare or other caregiving responsibilities. Applicants can, with the prior approval of the Award Chairs, have their eligibility extended on a calculated pro rata for the year count.</li> <li>Eligibility may also be extended to take into account any career interruptions experienced due to being the primary caregiver for young children born since their PhD was awarded. If the applicant is the primary caregiver of a dependent child, the applicant is able to extend the period of eligibility by two years per child. The extension of two years per dependent child is inclusive of any periods of parental leave. There is no maximum identified.</li> </ul> <p>For the MSR 2024 Early Career Achievement Award, the recipient was <strong>Patanamon (Pick) Thongtanunam</strong> for her contributions to understanding and improving modern code review practices using mining software repositories techniques.</p> <h4><a href="#nomination-procedure" id="nomination-procedure" class="anchor-link">Nomination procedure</a></h4> <p>This award is based on nominations written in English and submitted through the following form (self-nominations are not possible for this award): <a href="https://forms.gle/QytzM9hxS5xBvd6q6">https://forms.gle/QytzM9hxS5xBvd6q6</a></p> <p>The nomination form will ask for the following:</p> <ul> <li>The nominator’s name, affiliation, and email</li> <li>The nominee’s name, affiliation, and email</li> <li>A proposed citation for the award (max 180 characters, approx. 25 words)</li> <li>A short nomination statement (max 2.000 characters, approx. 250 words)</li> <li>(upload) detailed nomination (unlimited length) in PDF format</li> <li>The name and email of up to three references who are available to write a support letter within 4 weeks upon request (letters will be sought if the nominee is short-listed for the award)</li> </ul> <h3><a href="#msr-foundational-contribution-award" id="msr-foundational-contribution-award" class="anchor-link">MSR Foundational Contribution Award</a></h3> <p>The MSR Foundational Contribution Award recognizes individuals, or groups of individuals, having produced fundamental contributions in the field of mining software repositories, which helped many others (not limited to the MSR community) to build on it to advance the state of the art. It could be a tool, a dataset, a repository, or a mixture of contributions opening new research areas. It is not a requirement that such a research contribution has been presented at the MSR conference at some point. Having received other recognitions for the same contribution does not preclude an individual from being nominated for the MSR Foundational Contribution Award.</p> <p>In 2024, the MSR Foundational Contribution Award went to <strong>Margaret-Anne (Peggy) Storey</strong> for their methodological contributions to the community for work that goes beyond statistical models of mined repository data and encourages others to better understand their findings through triangulation using multiple methodologies.</p> <h4><a href="#nomination-procedure" id="nomination-procedure" class="anchor-link">Nomination procedure</a></h4> <p>This award is based on nominations written in English and submitted through the following form (self-nominations are not possible for this award): <a href="https://forms.gle/Nfd12bpGi4XxULx87">https://forms.gle/Nfd12bpGi4XxULx87</a></p> <p>The nomination form will ask for the following:</p> <ul> <li>The nominator’s name, affiliation, and email</li> <li>The nominee(s)’s name, affiliation, and email (the MSR Foundational Contribution Award can be assigned to a set of people who, e.g., worked together on a contribution)</li> <li>A proposed citation for the award (max 180 characters, approx. 25 words)</li> <li>A short nomination statement (max 2.000 characters, approx. 250 words)</li> <li>(upload) detailed nomination (unlimited length) in PDF format</li> <li>The name and email of up to three references who are available to write a support letter within 4 weeks upon request (letters will be sought if the nominee is short-listed for the award)</li> </ul> <h3><a href="#further-information-concerning-all-the-awards" id="further-information-concerning-all-the-awards" class="anchor-link">Further information concerning all the awards</a></h3> <h4><a href="#eligibility-criteria" id="eligibility-criteria" class="anchor-link">Eligibility criteria</a></h4> <p>Award Committee Chairs, Award Committee Members, the current and the 1st past Steering Committee Chairs of MSR cannot nominate, cannot be nominated, and cannot endorse (write letters).
