IEEE has an interesting working group and web page called Rebooting Computing. “Rebooting Computing” was coined by IEEE Life Fellow Peter Denning as part of his National Science Foundation-sponsored initiative to revamp computing education. The group will work from a holistic viewpoint, taking into account evolutionary and revolutionary approaches. Why this is important? Computing Needs →
