Shaping the future Our community of over 110,000 members, drawn from 190 countries, is shaping the future of technology through research, education and practice. ACM plays a leading role in shaping educational curricula, brings together the top researchers and practitioners in the field, publishes the best of today’s research and makes it accessible through the ACM Digital Library.

About the ACM

Serving the global community

Today’s research driving tomorrow’s technology Computers touch virtually every aspect of our everyday lives. For over 60 years, ACM has been the place where the best minds in computer science have come to meet, share ideas, publish their work and change the world.

ACM is comprised of a global community of computer scientists and practitioners who care deeply about the future of computing and its impact on the world. These volunteers, members, authors and editors donate their time, expertise, and experience to ensure that ACM remains the leading voice for the global computing community.

A leader in scholarly communication ACM has been at the forefront of some of the most important advances in publishing technology and policy since the internet was invented and continues to be one of the leading societies and scholarly publishers in the world.
