Amir touched our lives in several ways. As a scientist, Amir had the exceptionally deep insight that can open a new researcharea with a cleverly crafted paper. Having published over 250 papers, and won the Turing Award, the highest awarded recognition in computer science, Amir is no doubt one of the most brilliant and visionary computer scientists of all times. As a colleague and research collaborator, Amir steered the entire ?eld of research in unforeseen, original, directions. As a mentor, Amir was admired by the students that were lucky to be supervised by him. Amir will always be remembered as a colleague and a friend, who, with his kind manners and great vision has in- enced and will continue to in?uence present and future generations of computer scientists.
