The Capocelli Prize is awarded annually by the DCC program committee for an outstanding
student authored and presented DCC paper, in memory of Renato M. Capocelli,
May 3, 1940 - Aril 8, 1992, a friend and colleague who served on the DCC program
committee during its initial two years.
The winner of the award is voted by the DCC program
committee and notified during the year following the conference.
