Last month the Networking and Information Technology Research and Development (NITRD) program commemorated their 30th Anniversary in Washington D.C. You can read the full event recap here. In an effort to highlight the impact federal investments have had on the computing research community, the event featured five panels in which participants discussed key achievements in the field over the past decade and future directions going forward. Each panel focused on an important subarea of computer research: Computing at Scale, Networking and Security, Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning, Privacy and the Internet of Things and Socially Responsible Computing.    Privacy has become a huge topic of conversation not only among the computing research […]

In early October the Computing Community Consortium (CCC) held a virtual workshop on Physics & Engineering Issues in Adiabatic/Reversible Classical Computing. This workshop was organized by Michael (Mike) P. Frank (Sandia National Labs), Tom Conte (Georgia Tech), Erik DeBenedictis (Zettaflops LLC), Jayson Lynch (University of Waterloo), Karpur Shukla (Brown University), Robert Wille (Johannes Kepler University Linz) with support from CCC Systems and Architecture task force members Mark Hill (Microsoft) and Sujata Banerjee (VMWare). It brought together over 40 participants with backgrounds in physics, engineering, and computer architecture to address the challenges that must be overcome to realize practical adiabatic/reversible classical computing. A workshop report, summarizing the discussions and conclusions from […]

Khari Douglas will be covering the Virtual HLF 2020 on the CCC blog all week. Stay tuned for more and watch the program via livestream here.  The Virtual Heidelberg Laureate Forum (HLF) 2020 kicked off today (September 21st) via livestream. As part of the day’s program, Sir C. Antony R. Hoare and Leslie Lamport, both winners of the ACM A.M. Turing Award, sat down for a conversation to discuss their careers and offer advice to the young researchers in the audience. Lamport began the session by asking Hoare how his early school days prepared him to be a computer scientist. Hoare revealed he was nicknamed “Prof” by his classmates because of his studiousness and cited Bertrand Russell, […]
