**Frequently Asked Questions *

/*Can I self-nominate?
*/Yes. Note, however, that the prize is for a *project* and not for a 
person.

/*Can I nominate someone else’s work?
*/Yes. If you nominate the work of someone else, we will contact the 
persons involved to obtain their consent for their work to be considered 
by the jury for the prize.

/*Is this a career achievement award?
*/No. The prize will be given for the best *single* *project* submitted 
by an individual or a team.

/*How many entries am I allowed to submit?
*/There is no limit on the number of submissions you can submit; however 
the submissions must be substantially different from each other.

/*What is the maximum size of the team?
*/There is no upper limit on the size of the team.

*What is the maximum submission length?
*Submissions must be no more than two pages (A4 or Letter size). You are 
free to include as many external references as you can fit into the page 
limit. Remember that the reviewers are very busy people, so it is in 
your interests to make your entry as readable and easy to evaluate as 
possible.

/*What types of entries can be submitted?*/
Entries are most likely to fall into one or more of the following 
categories:

  * a neuromorphic circuit, device or system
  * a neuromorphic algorithm or operating principle
  * a tool which helps with the uptake of neuromorphic engineering
    technology

The entry may be a summary of a published or unpublished paper, or a 
description of a project, product or service.

/*My project is “small” – do I have a chance of winning?*/
Every project will be considered on its own merits, regardless of the 
development budget or the people who worked on it. We strongly encourage 
everyone who has developed a novel contribution to the field to enter, 
no matter how large or small the project.

/*My project is not completed – can I submit?*/
Projects can be submitted even if they are still in progress. They will 
be judged according to the results achieved at the time of submission.

/*Are resubmissions allowed?*/
If a submission is not selected for the prize, it may be resubmitted in 
updated form in any future year. Any submission that wins the prize once 
will not be eligible for future prizes, in either original or updated form.
