In this work, we study a fourth modification to the notion of efficient verification that originates in the study of quantum entanglement.
Post-Quantum Cryptography: Protecting Today from Tomorrow
Crafting more difficult algorithms to protect secrets so they are resilient to future quantum computers is creating, in effect, post-quantum cryptography.
Technical Perspective: The Real-World Dilemma of Security and Privacy by Design
"Securing the Wireless Emergency Alerts System," by Jihoon Lee et al., investigates real-world attacks on the current implementation of Wireless Emergency Alerts.
The introduction of the nanosheet transistor is just one step in the continuing attempt to stick to the spirit of Moore's Law.
Two-dimensional materials — graphene and its cousins — could enable better integrated circuits.
Competitive Compatibility: Let's Fix the Internet, Not the Tech Giants
Seeking to make Big Tech less central to the Internet.
Three books offer varied perspectives on the ascendancy of artificial intelligence.
The Role of Professional Certifications in Computer Occupations

Managing IT Professional Turnover
Organizational distrust, not compensation, is more likely to send IT pros packing.
The Sand-Heap Paradox of Privacy and Influence
In 2018, Arnold Kling wrote a famous blog article, "How the Internet turned bad." It is time for us, as a community, to ask now: "How do we turn the Internet good?"
The June 2021 Communications of the ACM celebrates Jeffrey Ullman and Alfred Aho as winners of ACM's 2020 Turing Award. For many Iranian members of the computing community, Ullman is the face of discrimination in academia.
An Internet of Things Service Roadmap
A blueprint for leveraging the tremendous opportunities the IoT has to offer.
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.
Get InvolvedCommunications of the ACM (CACM) is now a fully Open Access publication.
By opening CACM to the world, we hope to increase engagement among the broader computer science community and encourage non-members to discover the rich resources ACM has to offer.
