https://www.acm.org/binaries/content/gallery/acm/logos/cacm-logo.jpg _____ Communications of the ACM (CACM) , the flagship magazine of the Association for Computing Machinery, has launched Regional Special Sections to cover computing research and innovations from around the world. It is our pleasure to announce that the second edition of the CACM Europe Region Special Section is scheduled to appear in April 2022. It will include 10 to 15 articles, 1 to 5 pages each. Full information including more details of this call for papers can be found on the RSS Europe website sites.google.com/view/cacmeurope/cfp https://orange.hosting.lsoft.com/trk/click?ref=znwrbbrs9_6-2be60x32c596x045 28& . Topics of interest include: Computing research highlights: State-of-the-art computing research undertaken in the Europe region in areas including but not limited to Vision, Data-driven AI, Networking, Security, Mobile Computing, Sensors, HCI, Autonomous Driving, Business and Engineering Information Systems,... Articles with a theme that has special relevance are likely to be more suitable than those presenting narrow research results. Descriptions of prestigious and traditional regional conferences, schools, and other research related activities are welcomed. Industrial impact and startups: Opportunities and challenges in the industry and startups in Europe. Many successful examples emerge from large-scale interdisciplinary research and transfer in the digitizing or disrupting traditional production industries, including the field of process management. Societal impact with and of technology: Europe faces important societal challenges in all areas: health, energy, transportation, aging, migrations, etc. Examples of making a significant impact on society through the use of computing should be of interest to a global audience. Government and digital technology: Europe has emphasized the importance of digital sovereignty as reflected in its data and AI strategies and regulation, and related technological and social initiatives. Experiences and learning from these efforts will be ideal to be featured in the Europe section. We invite ideas for articles on the above themes from individuals or teams involved in them. If you would like to contribute to this regional special section, please submit a short, maximum 100-word abstract by August 5th, 2021 on your topic along with pointers to sources that can provide more details, using the https://orange.hosting.lsoft.com/trk/click?ref=znwrbbrs9_6-2be60x32c595x045 28& abstract subsmission portal .
