ACM Membership

Gabriel Wainer is a Full Professor in the Department of Systems and Computer Engineering at Carleton University. He is one of the founders of the SCS/ACM/IEEE Symposium on Theory of Modeling and Simulation, SIMUTools, and SCS/ACM/IEEE SimAUD. Her is a member of the Board of Directors of the  Society for Modeling and Simulation International (SCS), and is an SCS Fellow. His lectures include "Cellular Modeling with Cell-DEVS: A Discrete-Event Cellular Automata Formalism," "Modeling and Simulating Emerging Behaviour in Spatial Systems with Cell-DEVS," and more.

The ACM Student Research Competition is an internationally recognized venue enabling undergraduate and graduate students to experience the research world, share research results and exchange ideas, rub shoulders with academic and industry luminaries, understand the practical applications of their research and gain recognition.

Torsten Hoefler is a Professor at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) Zurich, where he serves as Director of the Scalable Parallel Computing Laboratory. He is also the Chief Architect for Machine Learning at the Swiss National Computing Center and a long-term consultant to Microsoft in areas including large-scale AI and networking. In his interview, he discusses ETH Zurich's Scalable Parallel Computing Laboratory, the exascale computer Frontier, MPI and high performance computing, and more.

Nesime Tatbul is a Senior Research Scientist at Intel’s Parallel Computing Lab (PCL) and MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL). Her research interests are broadly in large-scale data management systems and modern data-intensive applications, with a recent focus on learned data systems, time series analytics, and observability data management. In her interview, she discusses large-scale data management systems, stream processing, working in both industry and academia, and more.

ACM offers lifelong learning resources including online books and courses from Skillsoft, TechTalks on the hottest topics in computing and IT, and more.

Encourage your colleagues to join ACM, share the benefits of ACM and receive free gifts for participating. Your support of ACM is critical to our continuing efforts to advance computing as a science and a profession. 

Do you have questions about your member benefits, how to update your contact information, how to renew your membership, or claim missing issues? If so, visit ACM’s Customer Service FAQs for answers to these questions and more.

Learn more about ACM’s commitment to ethical standards: the ACM Code of Ethics, Software Engineering Code of Ethics and Professional Practice, and Committee on Professional Ethics (COPE), which is guiding these and other intiatives.

You can use your technical skills for social good and offer volunteer support on software development projects to organizations who could not otherwise afford it. SocialCoder connects volunteer programmers/software developers with registered charities and helps match them to suitable projects based on their skills, experience, and the causes they care about. Learn more about ACM’s new partnership with SocialCoder, and how you can get involved.

ACM has launched a local events initiative in several major US cities to help computer professionals like you build personal networks of smart technical people nearby. You can share work experiences and insight, discuss new research ideas and provide guidance in finding a job or launching a new venture.
