HCDA: From Computational Thinking to a Generalized Thinking Paradigm
As a new era in computing emerges, so too must our fundamental thinking patterns.
What Serverless Computing Is and Should Become: The Next Phase of Cloud Computing
The evolution that serverless computing represents, the economic forces that shape it, why it could fail, and how it might fulfill its potential.
Symbolic automata better balances how automata are implemented in practice.
We give the first efficient algorithm for estimating the parameters of a high-dimensional Gaussian that is able to tolerate a constant fraction of corruptions that is independent of the dimension.
Isomorphism, Canonization, and Definability for Graphs of Bounded Rank Width
In this paper we study the graph isomorphism problem and the closely related graph canonization problem as well as logical definability and descriptive complexity on graph classes of bounded rank width.
Technical Perspective: A Logical Step Toward the Graph Isomorphism Problem
In "Isomorphism, Canonization, and Definability for Graphs of Bounded Rank Width," Grohe and Neuen show that the Weisfeiler-Leman algorithm in its plain form solves the isomorphism problem for bounded-rank width graphs.
Opening up the world around us by detecting changes in quantum states.
Covid-19, which challenges how we interact with one another, is accelerating the development of touchless technologies.
Democratizing Facial Authentication
Intel's RealSense ID solution performs facial identification on device, not in the cloud.
The State of Quantum Computing
Recent developments in the field may signal quantum technology will soon be ready for prime time.
The World’s Most Magnificent Historical Calculating Machines
The design of today's electronic computers is usually not very appealing, in contrast to magnificent mechanical calculating machines from earlier times.
What Does a Static, Sustainable Economy Look Like?
As resources diminish, research and innovation will be needed to compensate for their scarcity. How will computer science contribute to such a situation?
Deep Learning Speeds MRI Scans
Machine intelligence significantly reduces the time needed for an MRI scan, which can help reduce patient anxiety.
The Worsening State of Ransomware
Sophisticated, dangerous ransomware is the new normal … and there is no simple fix.
The Non-Psychopath’s Guide to Managing an Open Source Project
Respect your staff, learn from others, and know when to let go.

Building a Multilingual Wikipedia
Seeking to develop a multilingual Wikipedia where content can be shared among language editions.
Over the last decade, the Arab world witnessed a significant investment in computer research and the corresponding enabling industry.
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.
