The Applied Probability Society of INFORMS offers three prizes each year. One prize is the best student paper prize (started in 2017). One prize alternates between the Best Publication in Applied Probability Award (in odd numbered years) and the Erlang Prize for Early Career Applied Probabilists (in even numbered years). One prize is the David Blackwell Prize (started in 2023). The list of current members of the Prize Committee can be found here.
