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. The 2007 IEEE Erle Shobert Prize Paper is "Basic Investigations for Switching of RF Signals" by Dr. Werner Johler, Tyco Electronics, Switzerland. A list of the previous prize winners (from 1970-2006) is included.
