We hope to adopt a new classification scheme for the Collected Algorithms of the ACM and TOMS. The (incomplete) classification scheme given below indicates the direction of our thinking. Since this represents a radical departure from current schemes, it seems prudent to solicit opinions on the direction taken before proceeding further. We are also in dire need of assistance in classifications from I on. Some of these classifications will certainly be eliminated if no one thinks they are worth developing. Other classifications will be added if a good case for doing so can be made.
