news Milestones | DOI:10.1145/2076450.2076476 acM fellows inducted Forty-six men and women are recognized as 2011 ACM Fellows. T Program was established by Council in 1993 to recognize and honor outstanding members of the Association for their achievements in computer science and information technology and for their significant contributions to ACM s mission. ACM Fellows serve as distinguished colleagues to whom the Association and its members look for guidance and leadership as the world of information technology evolves. The ACM Council endorsed the establishment of a Fellows Program and provided guidance to the ACM Fellows Committee, taking the view that the program represents a concrete benefit to which any ACM member might aspire, and provides an important source of role models for existing and prospective ACM Members. The program is managed by the ACM Fellows Committee as part of the general ACM Awards program. For details on Fellows nominations, see p. 20. ACM has recognized 46 of its members for their contributions to computing that have provided fundamental knowledge to the computing field and generated multiple technology advances. These 46 new inductees bring the total number of ACM Fellows to 763. ACM will formally recognize the 2011 Fellows at its annual Awards Banquet on June 16, 2012, in San Francisco, CA. These women and men, who are some of the leading thinkers and practitioners in computer science and engineering, are changing how the world lives and works, said ACM President Alain Chesnais. They have mastered the tools of computing and computer science to address the many significant challenges that confront populations across the globe. These international luminaries are responsible for solutions that are transforming our society for the better in health care, communications, cybersecurity, robotics, commerce, industry, and entertainment. h e aC M F eLLOw S acM fellows Serge Abiteboul INRIA Saclay Divyakant Agrawal University of California, Santa Barbara Ronald M.
