Listen to ACM ByteCast!
In this episode of ACM ByteCast, our special guest host Scott Hanselman (of The Hanselminutes Podcast) welcomes ACM Fellow Rosalind Picard, a scientist, inventor, engineer, and faculty member of MIT’s Media Lab, where she is also Founder and Director of the Affective Computing Research Group. She is the author of the book Affective Computing, and has founded several companies in the space of affective computing, including the startups Affectiva and Empatica, Inc. A named inventor on more than 100 patents, Rosalind is a member of the National Academy of Engineering and a Fellow of the National Academy of Inventors. Her contributions include wearable and non-contact sensors, algorithms, and systems for sensing, recognizing, and responding respectfully to human affective information. Her inventions have applications in autism, epilepsy, depression, PTSD, sleep, stress, dementia, autonomic nervous system disorders, human and machine learning, health behavior change, market research, customer service, and human-computer interaction, and are in use by thousands of research teams worldwide as well as in many products and services.

Grokking Concurrency
This book gets you writing the kind of high-performance code your apps deserve. Inside, you’ll find thorough explanations of concurrency’s core concepts—all explained with interesting illustrations, insightful examples, and detailed techniques you can apply to your own projects. Discover effective concurrency practices that will help you leverage multiple cores, excel with high loads, handle terabytes of data, and continue working after hardware and software failures. The core concepts in this guide will remain eternally relevant, whether you’re building web apps, IoT systems, or handling big data.
AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional (SAP-C02)
This course is a refresh of the popular Certified Solutions Architect - Professional course, updated to cover everything you need to pass the SAP-C02 exam. It’s been updated with more content, more strategies and more tips. The CSA-Pro exam is for advanced practitioners, and so is this course. We assume that you already have several years of AWS architecture experience behind you and that you already hold the AWS CSA-A certification, if not all three Associate-level AWS certs. This course will not only help you slay the CSA-Pro dragon with confidence, but will also help you continue to develop professionally as a Solutions Architect.
Modify a Virtual Machine v8 Lab
In this Challenge Lab, you will modify virtual machines in your vSphere environment. First, you will increase the size of the hard disk on a virtual machine, and then you will mount an existing hard disk on a virtual machine. Next, you will modify the hardware on a virtual machine, and then you will mount a raw device mapping (RDM) disk. Finally, you will add an additional network adapter to a virtual machine.
Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA)
The intention of this skill is to help you understand the foundational concepts of Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA), when and how to employ it, as well as understanding the resource implications and related decisions that need to be made. We also cover determining the deployment scenarios and use cases for ZTA, as well as migrating to and maturing associated programs.

Discover ACM Selects - Shortlists of Learning Resources Curated by Experts
ACM Selects are themed shortlists curated by subject matter experts for both serious and emerging computing professionals, with the goal of providing new ways to discover relevant resources. Please visit our archive of Selects on a variety of subjects which is available here.
ACM Case Studies
Written by leading domain experts for software engineers, ACM Case Studies provide an in-depth look at how software teams overcome specific challenges by implementing new technologies, adopting new practices, or a combination of both. Often through first-hand accounts, these pieces explore what the challenges were, the tools and techniques that were used to combat them, and the solution that was achieved.
ACM Distinguished Speakers Program
The Distinguished Speakers Program (DSP) is one of ACM's most valued outreach programs, providing universities, corporations, event and conference planners, and local ACM chapters with direct access to top technology leaders and innovators from nearly every sector of the computing industry. ACM will cover the cost of transportation for the speaker to travel to your event.
