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.

2018 ACM Distinguished Members Recognized

November 12th, 2018 / in Announcements, CCC, research horizons, Research News / by Helen Wright

The Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), has named 49 Distinguished Members for outstanding contributions to the field. These 2018 Distinguished Members are exemplars for their peers and represent ACM’s worldwide geographic reach, as well as the exciting range of subdisciplines that constitute today’s technology landscape.

One of this year’s distinguished members is former Computing Community Consortium (CCC) Council member Vasant Honavar from the Pennsylvania State University.

The ACM Distinguished Member program, initiated in 2006, recognizes those members with at least 15 years of professional experience who have made significant accomplishments or achieved a significant impact on the computing field. ACM Distinguished Membership recognizes up to 10% of ACM’s top members.

Congrats, Vasant!
