Impact of the Social Web on Computing Research

Scientists from diverse fields are feeling the impact of Social Web systems and are publishing research papers that characterize, model, prototype, and evaluate such systems.  Researchers are seeing a surge of new research on Web2.0 technologies distributed in a wide variety of disciplines and associated conferences.

Collaborating Across Boundaries

In a global world, collaboration and communicating with colleagues in different geographical locations is becoming critically important.  What kinds of tools can we build to address some of these challenges?  

Collective Intelligence: a Fad or Real Research?

A recent trend in HCI research is the extension of the long time goal of augmenting human intelligence to "augmenting social intelligence."  That is, enabling not just a single person to find and make sense of information, but enabling a group of people (whether explicitly or implicitly organized) to make sense of information.

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 Involved

Communications 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.
