The global impact of computing and information technology has never been clearer than it is now as the world continues its efforts to slow the COVID-19 pandemic.
Efficiency vs. Resilience: What COVID-19 Teaches Computing
Computer science has yet to internalize the idea that resilience, which to me includes fault tolerance, security, and more, must be pushed down to the algorithmic level.
Partnerships Can Help Drive Gender Equality
Myriad organizations work to increase the number of women in the technology sector. Are we possibly reducing our collective impact because we are sometimes competing rather than cooperating for funding and volunteer effort?
