1991 The first prize in 1991 was awarded to
Linda Petzold for DASSL, a
differential algebraic equation solver. This code is available in the public domain.
1995 The 1995 prize was awarded to Chris Bischof and Alan Carle for ADIFOR 2.0, an
automatic differentiation tool for
Fortran 77 programs. The code is available for educational and non-profit research.
1999 The 1999 prize was awarded to Matteo Frigo and
Steven G. Johnson for
FFTW, a C library for computing the
discrete Fourier transform.
2003 The 2003 prize was awarded to
Jonathan Shewchuk for Triangle, a two-dimensional mesh generator and
Delaunay Triangulator. It is freely available.
2007 The 2007 prize was awarded to Wolfgang Bangerth, Guido Kanschat, and Ralf Hartmann for
deal.II, a software library for computational solution of
partial differential equations using
adaptive finite elements. It is freely available.
2011 Andreas Waechter (
IBM T. J. Watson Research Center) and Carl Laird (
Texas A&M University) were awarded the 2011 prize for
IPOPT, an object-oriented library for solving large-scale continuous optimization problems. It is freely available.
2015 The 2015 prize was awarded to
Patrick Farrell (
University of Oxford), Simon Funke (
Simula Research Laboratory), David Ham (
Imperial College London), and
Marie Rognes (
Simula Research Laboratory) for the development of dolfin-adjoint, a package which automatically derives and solves adjoint and tangent linear equations from high-level mathematical specifications of finite element discretisations of
partial differential equations.
2019 The 2019 prize was awarded to
Jeff Bezanson,
Stefan Karpinski, and
Viral B. Shah for their development of the
Julia programming language. == See also ==
