During the evaluation process, each candidate reported and defended from the aspects of basic personal information, academic innovation achievements and future research plans, and was questioned by the expert judges. After a fierce competition, it was unanimously decided that Yuanjie Li (Tsinghua University) and Yu Zhang (Huazhong University of Science and Technology) would receive the 2022 ACM China Rising Star Award and Yan Meng (Shanghai Jiao Tong University) and Xupeng Miao (Peking University) would receive the 2022 ACM China Doctoral Dissertation Award, respectively (see Tables 2 and 3 for details), for their outstanding performance in basic theoretical or applied fundamental research and academic impact in computer science and technology and related fields.
