Jenks prize (GMP)

[Michael Monagan]

Hello GMP developers,

I am chair of the 2019 Jenks Prize Committee.

If the person in charge of GMP would like to nominate the GMP team for the 2019 Jenks Prize for Software Excellence in Computer Algebra, please could they complete the nomination form or contact me.


Information about the Jenks prize (and nomination form) may be found at

Although focused on mult-precision integer arithmetic, because GMP is used by several Computer Algebra Systems, and because of the level of sophistication of the GMP library and algorithms implemented, the members of the Jenks prize committee think GMP would be a very appropriate nominee.
