FY11 was a defining year for ACM as the largest educational and scientific computing society in the world. Many of the initiatives we have set forth over the last few years have taken root and we now see tangible evidence of their success.
Early in 2011, IEEE Computer Society President Sorel Reisman and I began discussing how IEEE-CS and ACM could work together more cooperatively. We solicited suggestions from our members and received some ideas that are worth pursuing for the benefit of the community, which I discuss here.
From the Presidents of the IEEE Computer Society and ACM
As most members of our organizations probably know, there is a great deal of overlap between the products and services offered by the IEEE CS and ACM. In fact, about 27% of ACM members belong to IEEE CS.
ACM Is Built on Volunteers’ Shoulders
ACM President Alain Chesnais says the association is largely built on the energy and devotion of its many dedicated volunteers. View this dynamic visual representation of volunteers' involvement with the SIGGRAPH 2010 conference.
Shape the Future of Computing
ACM encourages its members to take a direct hand in shaping the future of the association. There are more ways than ever to get involved.
