WEN-MEI HWU RECEIVES 2024 ECKERT-MAUCHLY AWARD
Wen-mei Hwu, a Senior Distinguished Research Scientist at NVIDIA and Professor
Emeritus at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, is the recipient of the
ACM-IEEE CS Eckert-Mauchly Award. Hwu is recognized for pioneering and
foundational contributions to the design and adoption of multiple generations of
processor architectures. His fundamental and pioneering contributions have had a
broad impact on three generations of processor architectures: superscalar, VLIW,
and throughput-oriented manycore processors (GPUs).
ACCESSIBILITY IN COMPUTING: TRENDS, CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES
The ever-changing landscape of technology, the computing industry, and resulting
societal impacts carry great potential for persons with disabilities. On July
10, 2024, ACM DEI Council hosted the panel, "Accessibility in Computing: Trends,
Challenges and Opportunities." Panelists explored a range of topics about the
current trends in accessibility in computing and how the industry is
incorporating inclusive designs to meet diverse needs. Panelists discussed the
gaps in accessibility that technology companies and others should address
creating a more inclusive digital space.
2023 COMPUTER SCIENCE CURRICULUM GUIDELINES REVISION
ACM has joined with the IEEE Computer Society and the Association for the
Advancement of Artificial Intelligence to develop "Computer Science Curricula
2023” (CS2023). CS2023 provides a comprehensive guide outlining the knowledge
and competencies students should attain for degrees in computer science and
related disciplines at the undergraduate level. Establishing uniform curricular
guidelines for computer science disciplines is essential to the ongoing vitality
of the field and the future success of those who study it.
NEW OPEN ACCESS PUBLISHING MODEL FOR ICPS COMING IN 2024
In a major step in its transition to fully Open Access (OA) publication of all
content on the ACM Digital Library, ACM will transition the International
Conference Proceedings Series (ICPS) to a fully OA publishing model from January
2024. In the new model, all ICPS papers will be made OA upon publication, and
existing ICPS papers will be converted to OA. Some authors who are not at ACM
Open institutions will be required to pay Article Processing Charges (APCs). The
model will apply to all conferences for which the Call for Papers will be issued
on or after January 1, 2024.
ACM SKILLS BUNDLE ADD-ON
ACM has created a new Skills Bundle add-on providing unlimited access to ACM's
collection of thousands of online books, courses, and training videos from

INAUGURAL ISSUES OF ACM/IMS JOURNAL OF DATA SCIENCE
ACM and IMS (Institute of Mathematical Statistics) have announced the
publication of the first issues of the ACM/IMS Journal of Data Science (JDS), a
new peer-reviewed publication. The scope of the journal is multi-disciplinary
and broad, spanning statistics, machine learning, computer systems, and the
societal implications of data science. JDS accepts original papers as well as
novel surveys that summarize and organize critical subject areas. The ACM/IMS
Journal of Data Science is a Gold Open Access publication, permanently and
freely available online for anyone, anywhere to read.
ACM BOASTS STRONG IMPACT FACTORS
The journals of ACM once again had an impressive showing in the latest Journal
Citation Reports release from Clarivate, with notable performances across the
entire portfolio and fifteen journals receiving their first impact
factors—including four titles from the innovative Proceedings of the ACM (PACM)
program. ACM's flagship magazine Communications of the ACM (CACM) continued its
dominance by receiving an all-time high impact factor of 22.7, placing it first
in all three of its categories, and ACM Computing Surveys (CSUR) which continued
to ascend with an impact factor of 16.6, placing it third in the Computer
Science, Theory & Methods category.
CEASING PRINT PUBLICATION OF ACM JOURNALS AND TRANSACTIONS
ACM has made the decision to cease print publication for ACM’s journals and
transactions as of January 2024. There were several motivations for this change:
ACM wants to be as environmentally friendly as possible; print journals lack the
new features and functionality of the electronic versions in the ACM Digital
Library; and print subscriptions, which have been declining for years, have now
reached a level where the time was right to sunset print. Please contact
acmhelp@acm.org should you have any questions.
CACM RELAUNCHED AS OPEN ACCESS, WEB-FIRST PUBLICATION
ACM has relaunched Communications of the ACM (CACM) as a web-first publication,
accessible to all without charge—including the entire backlog of CACM articles.
First published in 1958, CACM is one of the most respected information
technology magazines. The web-first model will allow ACM to publish articles
more rapidly than before so that readers can keep abreast of the lightning-fast
changes in the computing field. At the same time, researchers will be able to
reference and cite valuable information and research from CACM articles more
quickly. This marks another important milestone in ACM's ongoing transition to a
fully open access publisher.
TECHBRIEF ON AUTOMATED VEHICLES
ACM TechBriefs is a series of short technical bulletins by ACM’s Technology
Policy Council that present scientifically-grounded perspectives on the impact
of specific developments or applications of technology. Designed to complement
ACM’s activities in the policy arena, the primary goal is to inform rather than
advocate for specific policies. The new edition is focused on the problem that
deficiencies in critical testing data and automated vehicle technology are
impeding informed regulation and possible deployment of demonstrably safe
automated vehicles—and that improved safety outcomes depend on appropriately
regulating the safety engineering, testing, and ongoing performance of automated
vehicles.
HOTTOPIC PANEL ON AUTONOMOUS WEAPONS
Once considered science fiction, autonomous weapons systems long ago left the
drawing board for the battlefield. Employed in conflicts today, such systems
remain controversial and are ungoverned by any broad binding international
agreement. The ACM US Technology Policy Committee hosted the HotTopics webinar:
"Death by Algorithm: The Use, Control, and Legality of Lethal and Other
Autonomous Weapons Systems" with Larry Medsker (Moderator), Ronald C. Arkin,
Gary Corn, Jack Shanahan, and Jody Westby discussing this timely and critical
subject.
TPC RELEASES PRINCIPLES FOR GENERATIVE AI TECHNOLOGIES
In response to major advances in generative AI technologies—as well as the
significant questions these technologies pose in areas including intellectual
property, the future of work, and even human safety—ACM's global Technology
Policy Council (TPC) has issued "Principles for the Development, Deployment, and
Use of Generative AI Technologies." Drawing on the deep technical expertise of
computer scientists in the United States and Europe, the TPC statement outlines
eight principles intended to foster fair, accurate, and beneficial
decision-making concerning generative and all other AI technologies.
HOW TECH CAN EMPOWER THE LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY
In celebration of Pride Month, ACM hosted a panel discussion centered around
technological advances and its importance in connecting LGBTQ+ individuals

VISUALIZING PROGRESS IN BROADENING PARTICIPATION IN COMPUTING
Concerns about representation in computing within the US have driven numerous
activities to broaden participation. Assessment of the impact of these efforts
and, indeed, a clear assessment of the actual “problem” being addressed are
limited by the nature of the most common data analysis, which looks at the
representation of each population as a percentage of the number of students
graduating with a computing degree. In the July issue of Communications of the
ACM, Valerie Barr, Carla E. Brodley, and Manuel Pérez-Quiñones explore this
issue and offer several insights.
For Practitioners
MULTIPARTY COMPUTATION: TO SECURE PRIVACY, DO THE MATH
MPC (multiparty computation) was introduced to the world in 1982—at about the
same time the Commodore 64 was announced. Why are we still talking about MPC
more than 40 years later? Well, it turns out MPC is based on some extremely
complex math, which is like nectar to anyone in the field of cryptography. And,
over the past decade, MPC has come to be exhumed from the archives and harnessed
as one of the most powerful tools available for the protection of sensitive
data. Here, in a discussion with Nigel Smart, Joshua W. Baron, Sanjay Saravanan,
Jordan Brandt, and Atefeh Mashatan, we explore some of the implications of these
advances.
For Practitioners
AUTOMATICALLY TESTING DATABASE SYSTEMS
ACM Queue’s "Research for Practice" serves up expert-curated guides to the best
of computing research, and relates these breakthroughs to the challenges that
software engineers face every day. In this installment, "Automatically Testing
Database Systems," Manuel Rigger (Assistant Professor in the School of Computing
at the National University of Singapore) presents three papers. The first
focuses on the problem of automatically synthesizing sophisticated test oracles
that check whether the outputs of a database history are correct. The second
co-designs input generation and test oracle in order to focus strictly on bugs
in concurrency control. The last covers a diverse input space of SQL dialects
while relying on the "built-in" test oracle of system crashes.
