Thanks to all for participating in the #FCRC2023 CRA-Industry workshop yesterday! The first panel on "AI, Society, and the Role of Computing Research" was moderated by Ben Zorn (he/him) https://aka.ms/zorn with stimulating discussions by panelists Lisa Amini, Margaret Martonosi, Bart Selman on this timely topic

I had the pleasure of moderating the second panel on "Value and Relevance of a PhD in Industry" with thought-provoking insights from panelists Sujata Banerjee (VMware), Bobbie Manne (AMD), and Parthasarathy Ranganathan (Google). See the photo for a sample question for the panel!

Our final treat was an inspiring keynote talk by Mark Hill on "Driving Innovation in Academia and Industry" with tons of career advice for researchers at all levels. Visit cra.org/industry/ to learn more about CRA-Industry's future events and to sign up on our mailing list.

Thanks for sharing, Kexin Rong. This has been a busy week with FCRC and SIGMOD being held 3,500 miles apart. Look forward to catching up after we are all back on campus. Fully agree with the joys of in-person conferences!

Congratulations to all Georgia Tech School of Computer Science and @gatech_ece computer architecture researchers for their outstanding partnerships and contributions to ISCA over the years, and to program chair Hyesoon Kim and vice-chair Tushar Krishna for making ISCA-50 a grand success!

Santosh, congrats on being named a Simons Investigator in Computer Science, and on joining an elite group of research leaders across multiple disciplines. In addition to all your accomplishments, you are an awesome role model for our students and junior faculty in Georgia Tech Computing!

Congrats and welcome aboard, Steve! As you know, all of us at Georgia Tech School of Computer Science and Georgia Tech Computing are looking forward to having you as our colleague, and to help you in every way as you prepare for the start of your academic career in Fall 2024!

It was cool to see this project plan to perform Shakespeare in the Park in Atlanta! instagram.com/twelfthnightat…, youtube.com/watch?v=ajp7qU…

I hope it works out. Their kickstarter link is here: kickstarter.com/projects/twelf…

Congrats, Srinivas and Ellen Zegura! This is a great recognition for both of you, and for Georgia Tech Computing as well!

It was great to meet some of the new Explore LLC students along with my colleague, Kris Nagel, and to discuss exciting opportunities that span @GTSciences and Georgia Tech Computing. Also inspiring to hear the life experiences and goals that these new Jackets are bringing to campus!

Congrats to all awardees selected as Simons Foundation Investigators in 2023, including our very own Santosh Vampala selected as one of three in Theoretical Computer Science! This is well deserved, and will help enable Santosh to explore exciting new research directions in the future.

Well said, Ángel Cabrera. Kudos to all the Georgia Tech Computing schools on this accomplishment, and to all our Georgia Tech partner schools on their awesome showing as well.

Enjoyed stimulating discussions at the @CRAtweets cra.org/level-up workshop in Atlanta on challenges of preparing students from underrepresented groups for industry careers. Thanks to all, including our plenary speaker, Avis Yates Rivers, for their candid and insightful input.

Wow, kudos to our students and colleagues across campus on these impressive accomplishments! As always, we know that they were achieved without compromising academic rigor. #GoJackets!

Thanks Ángel Cabrera! It is an honor to take on this role under your leadership. This is indeed a consequential time for computing and its societal impacts, and my colleagues in Georgia Tech Computing and @gatech have a lot to contribute with their leadership in the field! #togetherweswarm

An awesome milestone for an awesome program! Kudos to all the Georgia Tech Computing pioneers who created and led this groundbreaking initiative, and congrats to the 10K+ GaTech Online MS CS graduates from around the globe. We couldn’t be prouder of you! #TogetherWeSwarm

Congrats to Sham on this very well deserved recognition of his leadership of the database area at Georgia Tech for over three decades! His textbook with Ramez Elmasri on the Fundamentals of Database Systems is a legend. We're delighted to have Sham as a colleague in Georgia Tech Computing!

Congrats, Dana! Your joint expertise in Math and Theoretical Computer Science is emblematic of the unique community that we have across Georgia Tech Computing, Georgia Tech ISyE, and Math at Georgia Tech, which includes the ACO PhD program and ARC center. Thanks for leading this community!

It was great to get a behind-the-scenes preview with @cabreraangel of the Pathway of Progress installation, dedicated to celebrating Georgia Tech women. We all look forward to the completion and inauguration of this uplifting tribute to all our alumnae!
