ACM Fellows.

The ACM Fellows Program was established by the U.S.-based Association of Computing Machinery's (ACM) Council in 1993 to recognize and honor outstanding ACM members for their achievements in computer science and information technology and for their significant contributions to the mission of the ACM. The ACM Fellows serve as distinguished colleagues to whom the ACM 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. A list of 34 men and women honored as ACM Fellows is presented. These ACM Fellows have made critical contributions toward and continue to exhibit extraordinary leadership in the development of Information Age and will be inducted at the ACM Awards Banquet on May 15, 1999, at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York.
