The CRA is excited to announce the launch of an Opportunity Board to enable recent new PhD graduates and members of the community that are looking for postdocs to connect. This is a continuation of the Opportunity Board used to match potential postdocs and mentors during the CIFellows 2021 process. The board allows for the posting of postdoc opportunities by potential mentors and posts by those looking for a postdoc opportunity. We encourage members of the community to use this as a resource. The Opportunity Board lists four options: Find Mentor Find Postdoc Post Mentor Profile Post Postdoc Profile You are able to search for potential postdocs and available postdoc […]
Computing Community Consortium Blog
The goal of the Computing Community Consortium (CCC) is to catalyze the computing research community to debate longer range, more audacious research challenges; to build consensus around research visions; to evolve the most promising visions toward clearly defined initiatives; and to work with the funding organizations to move challenges and visions toward funding initiatives. The purpose of this blog is to provide a more immediate, online mechanism for dissemination of visioning concepts and community discussion/debate about them.

NSF Disrupting Operations of Illicit Supply Networks (D-ISN) Program
July 7th, 2021 / in Announcements, NSF, research horizons, Research News / by Helen WrightThe following National Science Foundation (NSF) Disrupting Operations of Illicit Supply Networks (D-ISN) program has an upcoming deadline of July 28, 2021, and might be of interest to those in our computer science research community. This solicitation supports fundamental research to enable transformative change in our ability to detect, disrupt and disable illicit supply networks that traffic in persons, and tangible and virtual goods. These transformations will require well-coordinated, multi-disciplinary approaches that complement long-standing law-enforcement, victim-centric, and trafficking domain-focused research efforts with fundamental, innovative, and high-risk research that draws from multiple domains of engineering, computer and information science, and the social, behavioral, and economic sciences. Major goals of NSF’s D-ISN Solicitation […]
Visions in Theoretical Computer Science Workshop Report: A Report on the TCS Visioning Workshop 2020
July 6th, 2021 / in research horizons, workshop reports / by Maddy HunterRoughly every ten years the Theoretical Computer Science (TCS) community comes together for a visioning workshop to discuss recent accomplishments and new challenges in the field of TCS. The workshop acts as an opportunity for reflection within the community and a way of informing interested investors. The newly released Visions in Theoretical Computer Science Workshop Report, written by Shuchi Chawla (University of Wisconsin-Madison), Jelani Nelson (University of California, Berkeley), Chris Umans (California Institute of Technology), and David Woodruff (Carnegie Mellon University) and supported by the Computing Community Consortium, summarizes the key takeaways from the 2020 TCS Visioning Workshop. Organized by the SIGACT Committee for the Advancement of Theoretical Computer Science, […]
