understand how this new site can best serve readers, members, and the greater
computing community. If you receive an invitation from our research partner,
Corona Insights, with a link to the questionnaire, we do hope you will take a
few minutes to take the survey. Your participation is voluntary, and your
answers will be confidential.

ACM TRANSACTIONS ON PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES AND SYSTEMS GOES GOLD OA

As of January 2022, and for a two-year period, all papers published in ACM
Transactions on Programming Languages (TOPLAS) will be published as Gold Open
Access (OA) and will be free to read and share via the ACM Digital Library.
During the first two years, authors will be given the option (but not required)
to pay the APC. Archival content will be made open access as of January 1, 2022
as well. For those authors financially unable to pay the APC as of 2024, ACM has
developed a waiver program to ensure that no accepted articles to TOPLAS go
unpublished as a result of financial need.


RESEARCH PUBLICATION ON INTEGRATING COMPUTATIONAL THINKING AT THE PREK-5 LEVEL

Although research on computational thinking (CT) within K-12 has been emerging
over the past few years, few studies have investigated the teaching of CT at the
younger ages. The ACM and the Robin Hood Learning + Technology Fund co-funded
this special research publication to examine empirically-based studies that
focused on the integration of computational thinking at the elementary levels
into a variety of learning disciplines including math, ELA, science, and
computer science.


ACM-W'S WEBINAR SERIES CELEBRATES WOMEN IN COMPUTING

By highlighting successful technical women who are leading diverse careers in
the technology industry, ACM-W’s webinar series, “Celebrating Technology
Leaders,” aims to inform students and early-career professionals about the
multitude of career options open to them. Visit
https://women.acm.org/celebrating-technology-leaders/ to view on-demand.


TPC TECHBRIEF FLAGS FACIAL RECOGNITION ISSUES FOR GLOBAL POLICY MAKERS AND THE
PUBLIC

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 focuses on policy issues raised
by facial recognition and its use by governments and the private sector, noting
that “facial recognition use is increasing despite the technology’s fundamental
limitations, creating profound privacy and ethical challenges.”


ON MARCH 3, 2022, ACM’S EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE DECIDED NOT TO HOLD ANY CONFERENCES
IN RUSSIA WHILE THE CONFLICT IN THE UKRAINE AND THE HUMANITARIAN CRISIS IN
EUROPE CONTINUE. THIS DECISION APPLIES TO ACM SPONSORED CONFERENCES AND
WORKSHOPS AS WELL AS IN-COOPERATION EVENTS.

EUROPEAN REGION SPECIAL SECTION 2022

Co-organizers Jessica R. Cauchard, Matthias Jarke, and Nuria Oliver discuss
CACM's April 2022 European Region Special Section spotlighting both European
countries and Israel, focusing on the high overall share of European public
research on a global scale and significant differences within the region. While
this special section can only cover a small part of the breadth and depth of CS
research and innovation pursued in Europe and Israel, we hope it will provide
insights into many of the strategic drivers and networks of what is happening in
the region and into exciting research results and start-up initiatives.


For Practitioners


IT TAKES A COMMUNITY

Of the many challenges faced by open-source developers, among the most daunting
are those which other programmers scarcely ever think about such as legal
matters and human resources. Because building a successful open-source community
depends on many different elements such as the ability to recruit, to inspire,
to mentor, to manage, and to mediate disputes, all without the use of
compensation. Here, we discuss the subject with successful open-source
developers including Reynold Xin, chief architect of Databricks, Alan Gates,
co-founder of Hortonworks, and Wes McKinney, founder of Ursa Labs.

ACM UPDATES CODE OF ETHICS

ACM recently updated its Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct. The revised
Code of Ethics addresses the significant advances in computing technology since
the 1992 version, as well as the growing pervasiveness of computing in all
aspects of society. To promote the Code throughout the computing community, ACM
created a booklet, which includes the Code, case studies that illustrate how the
Code can be applied to situations that arise in everyday practice and
suggestions on how the Code can be used in educational settings and in companies
and organizations. Download a PDF of the ACM Code booklet.
