Professor Aarti Gupta, who joined the Department of Computer Science as a full professor in 2015, has been named a fellow of the Association for Computing Machinery, considered the world’s preeminent computing society.

Matt Weinberg, who joined the Computer Science Department early in 2017 as an assistant professor, believes the solution lies in algorithmic mechanism design, that is, ensuring that systems of all kinds — not just dating sites but such widely varied processes as auctions, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, and crowdsourcing — remain credible and accurate even when users may try to exploit them for their own purposes.

As new devices move quantum computing closer to practical use, the journal Nature recently asked Princeton computer scientist Margaret Martonosi and two colleagues to assess the state of software needed to exploit this powerful computational approach.  Read the full story here.

Professor Barbara Engelhardt was part of the TEDxBoston 2017 event Revolutionary Ideas: Advancing Our Machines which took place on October 16, 2017.
