A preview of things to come.
BREAKTHROUGH
RESEARCH
Cutting-edge computing research, as this issue attests, is at the very
foundation of CACM’s evolution. Over the years, the presenta-
tion of computing research within this publication has taken dif-
ferent forms, and will do so once again.
A new CACM editorial model, as detailed in Moshe Vardi’s article in
this issue (see page 44), calls for research to make a very real comeback, but
with a twist. The research articles presented in future issues of CACM will
maintain their detailed integrity, but be written for a broad audience.
Moreover, each article will be preceded by a single-page Technical Perspec-
tive that notes the significance of the research and the impact that research
may have on the computing field.
Here we present two examples of the kind of research articles and
accompanying Technical Perspectives planned for CACM later this year.
