It is the biggest (or second biggest, depending on how you count) computer science professional organization. You may join if you have a BS or better in CS or if you have a certain amount of experience in the field. They publish journals, sponser conferences, and do other academic things. You may get more information by writing: The Association for Computing Machinery 11 West 42nd Street New york, New York 10036 Publishers sometimes give price-breaks to ACM members. And, oh yeah, there is a student membership program as well. My information on membership could be incorrect. The address is definite. -Scott Berryman Dept. of computer Science Yale University 51 Prospect Street New Haven, CT 06520 berryman@cs.yale.edu 203-432-1260
