the new Bulletin is available at:
https://eatcs.org/images/bulletin/beatcs144.pdf
The Distributed Computing Column, edited by Seth Gilbert, features Robin
Vacus, winner of the 2024 Principles of Distributed Computing Doctoral
Dissertation Award. His thesis on "Algorithmic Perspectives to Collective
Natural Phenomena" explores how distributed computing techniques can help
understand biological processes found in the real world. It examines a
variety of different phenomena.
I am also very happy to welcome a new editor, Stefan Neumann from TU Wien,
Austria, who will be in charge of a new column, "TCS on the Web". In his
first column, Stefan Neumann leads a conversation with Clement Canonne, one
of the most important theoretical computer science influencers.
The Interview Column features Bruce Maggs who shares with us what
influenced him in his career, and provides perspectives and advice how our
community can evolve.
In the Viewpoint Column, our former president Luca Aceto reflects on the
role of an invited speaker at a conference.
The Computational Complexity Column, edited by Michal Koucky, features an
article by Till Tantau who explores and discusses seven ways of deciding
whether most vertex sets cover a graph.
In the Logic in Computer Science Column, Yuri Gurevich discusses
intelligence, measuring intelligence, and related issues, inspired by the
article "On the measure of intelligence" by François Chollet.
I am also very happy to welcome another new editor, Thomas Zeume from the
Ruhr-University Bochum, Germany. He will replace Juraj Hromkovic as editor
of the Education Column, and will be responsible for it together with
Dennis Komm. On this occasion, I would like to thank Juraj Hromkovic very
much for all his contributions to the Bulletin over all these years. The
Education Column in this issue will present an algorithms design strategy
called "constructive induction" that enables high school students to solve
a large variety of algorithmic problems.
Enjoy the new Bulletin and I wish you a wonderful remainder of the year!
