June 3, 2020

IEEE Senior Member Eve M. Schooler is a co-recipient of the IEEE Internet Award “for distinguished leadership in developing standards for Internet multimedia, and formative contributions to the design of Internet multimedia protocols.”  Schooler’s work on early multimedia signaling protocols was instrumental in demonstrating the feasibility of Internet packet audio and video and scalable collaborative systems. She brought these innovations into the standards arena, where she led the Multiparty Multimedia Session Control (MMUSIC) working group in the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) for many years. She co-authored the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), a widely adopted standard for Internet telephony and multimedia conferencing, and she developed real-time transport control protocol (RTCP) extensions, enabling large-scale IPTV deployment. She will receive the award at the 2020 International Conference on Communications in Dublin, Ireland.
