Google Lens ... Google Translate ...” and
even “Google Science Fair.” Cerf lauds
Google eight times, failing to mention
any other organization even once.
Cerf, a luminary of our field, is free
to serve Google as its “chief evangelist,”
as his byline notes. ACM should not
allow itself to be used as its platform.

Editor-in-Chief’s response:
It’s a good point that ACM aspires
to balance coverage of advanced
technologies from leading academic
researchers, government researchers,
companies, and other leaders around
the world. This case was a failure of
expediency and familiarity. Vinton Cerf’s
employer certainly has no monopoly
on advanced technology in language
translation (for example, Microsoft
Translator, Amazon Translate, Baidu
Translate) and image recognition
(for example, Sense Time, Amazon
Rekognition, Bing Visual search). We will
continue to strive to do better!

ACM Transactions on Computing
for Healthcare (HEALTH)
A multidisciplinary journal for high-quality original
work on how computing is improving healthcare
Computing for Healthcare has emerged as an important
and growing research area. By using smart devices, the
Internet of Things for health, mobile computing, machine
learning, cloud computing and other computing based
technologies, computing for healthcare can improve
the effectiveness, efficiency, privacy, safety, and security
of healthcare (e.g., personalized healthcare, preventive
healthcare, ICU without walls, and home hospitals).
ACM Transactions on Computing for Healthcare (HEALTH)
is the premier journal for the publication of high-quality
original research papers, survey papers, and challenge
papers that have scientific and technological results
pertaining to how computing is improving healthcare.
This journal is multidisciplinary, intersecting CS, ECE,
mechanical engineering, bio-medical engineering,
behavioral and social science, psychology, and the
health field, in general. All submissions must show
evidence of their contributions to the computing field
as informed by healthcare. We do
not publish papers on large pilot
studies, diseases, or other medical
assessments/results that do not
have novel computing research
results. Datasets and other artifacts
needed to support reproducibility
of results are highly encouraged.
Proposals for special issues are
encouraged.
