The Konrad Zuse Medal for Services to Computer Science is the highest award of the Gesellschaft für Informatik (German Computer Science Society), given every two years to one or sometimes two leading German computer scientists. It is named after German computer pioneer Konrad Zuse.[1][2] Note that a different medal with the same name is also given out by the Zentralverband des Deutschen Baugewerbes (Central Association of German Construction).
