Smartphone-based Satellite Connectivity to Move Beyond Emergency Services
Different approaches emerge in the race to provide direct-to-satellite smartphone services.
Even as software grows increasingly complex, artificial intelligence helps to simplify and automate coding tasks.
. . . And the Computer Plays Along
Software can improvise on the spot to accompany the performance of live musicians.
Artificial Intelligence for Materials Discovery
Finding novel materials needs more than pure machine learning.
ACM Publications Finances for 2021
One requirement for ACM's multiyear transition to become a fully Open Access publisher is to develop and implement a sustainability plan to ensure ACM Publications continues to operate at a high level with the quality of its publications and the services it provides to the community.
Contracting for Artificial Intelligence
Considering the promises and perils of contracting for the use of artificial intelligence tools and data.
Leveraging scalable pointer analysis, value analysis, and dynamic analysis.
Protecting Autonomous Cars from Phantom Attacks
Enabling object detectors to better distinguish between real and fake objects in semi-autonomous and fully autonomous vehicles.
As with the huge hotel and condo complex being constructed adjacent to the building where my office is located, tools for building new systems often require temporary scaffolding to reach the point where the intended system can support itself.
Hoping for the Best as AI Evolves
Gary Marcus on the systems that "pose a real and imminent threat to the fabric of society."
Improving Section 230, Preserving Democracy, and Protecting Free Speech
Proposing a framework for a decentralized market where no one party controls the flow of information.
Cyber Efficiency and Cyber Resilience
Complementary objectives competing for the same resources.
Faculty Can Save Lives of the Elderly
A unique viewpoint on risks to senior citizens from academia.
Where Is the Research on Cryptographic Transition and Agility?
Gaps facing the industry as quantum safe algorithms move closer to standardization.
Eight Reasons to Prioritize Brain-Computer Interface Cybersecurity
Defining and analyzing the impact of cyberattacks on novel generations of BCIs.
A new generation of automatic theorem provers eliminate bugs in software and mathematics.
Technical Perspective: On Abstractions and Embedded Networks
"Symbol-Synchronous Buses," by Jonathan Oostvogels et al., conceives a notion of a symbol-synchronous bus, which effectively makes a multi-hop wireless network behave like a single wire.
Symbol-Synchronous Buses: Deterministic, Low-Latency Wireless Mesh Networking with LEDs
We describe a novel networking paradigm that aims to enable a new class of latency-sensitive applications by systematically breaking networking abstractions.
The Imperativity of Algorithms
The important named algorithms that we call upon deserve a robust ontology.
Will AI Replace Computer Programmers?
Advances in artificial intelligence tools that can code could improve productivity, but portend disruption.
Automatic Language Translation Still Unsatisfactory
Google Translate and DeepL Translate still have trouble recognizing the second person singular and plural and the polite form, even in very simple sentences.
Artificial Intelligence Without Real Intelligence?
Do the programs understand what they write?
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.
