The meeting expressed its gratitude for the work of the outgoing Vice Chair, Prof. George Pavlou, who decided not to run for re-election this time around. The next CNOM officers election is due to take place at IM 2013, in Ghent, Belgium.

Prof. George Pavlou, University College London, received the Dan Stokesberry award at the Im 2011 conference in May 2011. The award is presented in memory of IM’97 Chair Dan Stokesberry at each International Symposium on Integrated Network Management (IM) to an individual who has made a particularly distinguished technical contribution to the growth of the field. Prof. Pavlou’s research interests focus on networking, network management and service engineering, and have included aspects such as network dimensioning, traffic engineering, quality of service management, self-organised and hoc/mesh networks, policy-based systems, autonomic networking, multimedia service control and object-oriented communications middleware. He serves on the editorial boards of the IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management,  IEEE Communications Magazine,  IEEE Communication Surveys & Tutorials and the Springer Journal of Network and System Management.

Dr. Masayoshi Ejiri received the 2010 Salah Aidarous Award. The award is presented in memory of NOMS’04 Chair Salah Aidarous at each International Network Operations and Management Symposium (NOMS) to an individual who has provided unremitting service and dedication to the IT and Telecommunications Network Operations and Management community. Masayoshi Ejiri worked at NTT for 28 years and then at Fujitsu for 12 years both in network management related jobs. He was the founding Telecommunications Management (TM) committee in Japan, which is equivalent to CNOM and KNOM. Masayoshi served as General Co-Chair of the first NOMS in Kyoto, Japan in 1996 with Shri Goyal and as General Co-Chair for NOMS 2004 in Seoul, Korea. As most of you know, both NOMSs have been very successful. He is truly considered as the father of network management in Japan. In addition, Masayoshi was one of the early contributors to ITU-T’s TMN (Telecommunications Management Network) recommendations, and the CNOM Vice Chair serving during the two years before Salah became the CNOM Chair.
