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.

The American Academy of Arts & Sciences recently announced that more than 250 outstanding individuals have been elected to the Academy in 2020, including Computing Community Consortium (CCC) Council member Ronitt Rubinfeld from Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Founded in 1780, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences honors excellence and convenes leaders from every field of human endeavor to examine new ideas, address issues of importance to the nation and the world, and work together “to cultivate every art and science which may tend to advance the interest, honor, dignity, and happiness of a free, independent, and virtuous people.”

Ronitt joined the Council in 2018 and is a member of the FADE (Fairness, Accountability, Disinformation, and Explainability) Task Force. She participated in the Economics and Fairness Workshop in May 2019, which produced the Algorithmic and Economic Perspectives on Fairness Workshop Report.

In addition, a number of former CRA Board members were honored including Sarita Adve (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign), Margaret Martonosi (Princeton University), and Eugene Spafford (Purdue University).  See the Computing Research Association’s Bulletin for more information.
