So far, $80,000 have been raised from SIGACT, SIGMOD, the Kannelakis
family, and PWS publishing, towards the award endowment. Additional
$20,000 are needed to allow the award to be given every year. We
should like to provide an opportunity for friends and colleagues of
Paris to contribute to the award endowment. We invite pledges to honor
Paris and the tradition of scholarly excellence he embodied. Please
indicate the amount you wish to pledge by sending email to
shp@cs.brown.edu or writing to the following address:
ACM Kanellakis Award, c/o Susan Platt, Box 1910, Dept of Computer
Science, Providence, RI 02912. ACM will then contact you concerning
your (tax deductible) contribution.

committee: David Johnson (dsj@research.att.com), Tom Leighton
(ftl@math.mit.edu), Christos Papadimitriou (christos@cs.berkeley.edu),
