Richard E. Bellman Control Heritage Award
The Richard E. Bellman Control Heritage Award is an annual award (since 1979) given by the American Automatic Control Council (AACC) for achievements in control theory, named after the applied mathematician Richard E. Bellman. The award is given for "distinguished career contributions to the theory or applications of automatic control", and it is the "highest recognition of professional achievement for U.S. control systems engineers and scientists".[1]
The original name was Control Heritage Award, and it was initially only given for the engineering side of control.[2][3]
