[Some very compelling and highly recommended presentations on computing
science and network research. From a posting on Dave Farber's IPer list --
BSA]

From: Ed Lazowska 

Dave,

As you've previously posted on IP, the Computing Community Consortium was
established by NSF (under a cooperative agreement with the Computing
Research Association) to engage the computing research community in
formulating and articulating some longer-range and more compelling visions
for the field.

At this week's Federated Computing Research Conference, there were six
CCC-related talks.  Slides are online and might be of interest to IP-ers.

The talks were:

Ed Lazowska, "Introducing the Computing Community Consortium"

Christos Papadimitriou, "The Algorithmic Lens:  How the Computatational
Perspective is Transforming the Sciences"

Bob Colwell, "Computer Architecture Futures 2007"

Randal Bryant, "Data-Intensive Super Computing: Taking Google-Style
Computing Beyond Web Search"

Scott Shenker, "We Dream of GENI:  Exploring Radical Network Designs"

Ed Lazowska, "Computer Science:  Past, Present, and Future" (FCRC closing
keynote)
