ACM ACM, Association for Computing Machinery The world’s largest educational and scientific computing society, delivers resources that advance computing as a science and a profession. ACM provides the computing field's premier Digital Library and serves its members and the computing profession with leading-edge publications, conferences, and career resources.   Founded in 1947, ACM is the world's first educational and scientific computing society.  Today, ACM members — over 80,000 computing professionals and students world-wide — and the public turn to ACM for authoritative publications, pioneering conferences, and visionary leadership for the new millennium.

ACM ACM has released a set of recommendations supporting U.S. President-elect Barack Obama's goal of making science and mathematics education a national priority, and urged the new administration to make computer science a critical part of the nation's education system. "Computing education benefits all students, not just those interested in pursuing computer science or information technology careers," says ACM Education Policy Committee chair Bobby Schnabel. "To meet the nation's educational and professional needs in the face of insufficient numbers of undergraduates majoring in computer science, we need to work harder to increase interest at the K-12 level, and to expand the pipeline supplying the necessary workforce for an information-based economy." The recommendations highlight the role of computer science in driving the technology sector, which is expected to make significant contributions to economic growth.
