The open exchange of ideas and the freedom of thought and expression are central to the aims and goals of ACM and its conferences.  These aims and goals require an environment that recognizes the inherent worth of every person and group, that fosters dignity, understanding, and mutual respect, and that embraces diversity.
 
ACM is firmly committed to prohibiting discrimination at its conferences against individuals because of race, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, marital status religion, national origin, ancestry, or disability.  All individuals are entitled to participate in any ACM activity free of discrimination, including harassment based on any of the above factors.

ACM is concerned about discriminatory legislation in various locations and will work with conference organizers to best address location related issues.

Volunteer commitment and coordination is the foundation that makes an ACM conference successful. ACM provides a comprehensive planning guide with instructions and best practices to help create the best possible event.

The ACM Conference on Security and Privacy in Wireless and Mobile Networks is the leading ACM and SIGSAC conference dedicated to all aspects of security and privacy in wireless and mobile networks and their applications, mobile software platforms, Internet of Things, cyber-physical systems, usable security and privacy, biometrics, and cryptography. Keynote speakers this year are William Enck (North Carolina State University), Srdjan Capkun (ETH Zurich), and Gabriela F. Ciocarlie (The University of Texas at San Antonio). This year’s conference will be held in-person in San Antonio, Texas, USA.

Learning @ Scale investigates large-scale, technology-mediated learning environments that typically have many active learners and few experts on hand to guide their progress or respond to individual needs. Workshops will address Educational Nonlinear Stories with Twine, Learnersourcing: Student-generated Content @ Scale, and the Third Annual Workshop on A/B Testing, Platform-Enabled Learning Research, and more. President Martha Pollack will keynote. This will be a hybrid event, and will be held at Cornell Tech, Roosevelt Island campus adjacent to New York City.

The ACM Special Interest Group (SIG) on Management Information Systems (MIS) promotes best-practice and research in the management of information systems and technologies in management commerce. This year's program includes discussions on IT workers returning to their former employers, the influence of workplace social support on IT professionals’ turnover, diversity in management, and more. The conference will be held in Atlanta, Georgia, USA.

The 32nd edition of GLSVLSI will be held as an in-person conference. Original, unpublished papers describing research in the general areas of VLSI and hardware design are solicited. In addition to the traditional topic areas of GLSVLSI, papers are solicited for a special theme of “Machine learning in CAD, EDA, and VLSI Design and Security." Keynote speakers will be Andrew B. Kahn - "AI/ML, Optimization and EDA in the TILOS AI Research Institute," Kaushik Roy - "In-Memory Computing-Based Machine Learning Accelerators: Opportunities and Challenges," and Sanu Mathew - "Attack-Resistant Circuit Technologies for sub-5nm Secure Computing Platforms." The conference will he held Irvine, CA, USA.

The ACM SIGMETRICS International Conference on Measurement and Modeling of Computer Systems is the flagship conference of the ACM Special Interest Group for the computer systems performance evaluation community. Workshops will cover economics of networks, network security, and mathematical performance modeling and analysis. Speakers include Minghua Chen (City University of Hong Kong), Steven Low (University of Melbourne), Shigang Chen (University of Florida), and more. This year’s installment is co-located with the IFIP Performance 2022 conference, and will be held in Mumbai, India. This will be a hybrid event.

The 2021 edition of the AI for Good Global Summit is a continuous digital event, featuring weekly programming across multiple formats, platforms and time zones, including keynotes, expert webinars, project pitches, Q&As, performances, demos, interviews, networking and more. Upcoming highlights include presentations on AI and climate science, health, and data, and a keynote on "The EU’s Artificial Intelligence Act: How will it impact your life and business?"

In March 2020 ACM formed a Presidential Task Force (PTF) to help conference organizers transition their events to online. The PTF is working on a guide to offer practical advice and shed light on the largely unfamiliar territory of online conferencing.

The report, availablehere, includes pointers to a live document with additional resources. We welcome comments, suggestions and experience reports from the community.

Best Paper Awards are presented at many ACM conferences to authors whose work represents groundbreaking research in their respective areas. By recognizing these select papers for their ingenuity and importance, ACM highlights some of the theoretical and practical innovations that are likely to shape the future of computing.
