cra.org/crn Candidates Sought for CRA Board of Directors

The Computing Research Association seeks your help in recruiting candidates for its Board of Directors. We want individuals who have time, energy, initiative, and resources to work on CRA issues on behalf of the entire CRA community. We have a working Board, and all members are expected to work on community issues.

The Board provides the membership for various standing committees, including the Government Affairs, Conference at Snowbird, Taulbee Survey, Finance, and Elections committees. In addition, issues affecting computing research arise unexpectedly, and Board members must take the initiative and lead CRA’s responses. Many CRA committees and initiatives involve year-round attention, regular conference calls, communications with lab directors and department chairs, proposal writing, and sometimes travel at the expense of the individual Board member.

The Board, as a whole, meets twice a year, with travel and hotel costs paid by the individual members. Board members serve staggered three-year terms. At the discretion of the Elections Committee and based upon a member’s proactive service record during the expiring term, members wishing to stand for re-election may be included on the draft ballot. There is a three term limit. Candidates may nominate themselves by completing this form. They do not need to be affiliated with CRA member organizations.

Recent board activities include: Important dates and events: •• Working with the computing •• The deadline for receipt of nominations is November 30, 2018.

5 cra.org/crn October 2018 A Roadmap for Artificial Intelligence

By Ann Drobnis, CCC Director

One cannot get through the day without some acknowledgment of Artificial Intelligence (AI), whether it’s something in the news or a direct interaction with an AI system. However, as acknowledged by the White House (see quotes below), there is still much research to be done in the area.

The Computing Community Consortium (CCC) is announcing a new initiative to create a Roadmap for Artificial Intelligence, led by Yolanda Gil (University of Southern California and President-Elect of AAAI) and Bart Selman (Cornell University). This is in support of the Administrations’ efforts in this area From a recent FedScoop Article: and will bring together academic and industrial researchers and federal agency representatives to Michael Kratsios, U.S. deputy CTO and the current de facto head of help chart a course for needed research in AI. The the Office of Science and Technology Policy, said that while the plan is to hold a series of workshops in the Fall/ administration is pushing for agencies to make AI a priority in their Winter of 2018/2019, which will result in a Roadmap research and development spending, it also wants to partner that with to be produced in the Spring of 2019. The goal of the private sector and academia to help outpace competitors like China the initiative is to identify challenges, opportunities, on development. and pitfalls, and create a compelling report that will effectively inform future federal priorities— “The federal government spends about $150-plus billion a year on R&D including future AI R&D Investments, as highlighted and it’s critical that we prioritize AI as a research area,” he said. “So by National Science Foundation (NSF) Director actually getting agencies to be allocating dollars towards a specific France Cordova in her monthly address. NSF research area is a little trickier than you would imagine. The best to do Directorate for Computing and Information Science that is you have to send very strong signaling from the White House to and Engineering (CISE) is supporting the initiative, agencies that they should be thinking or prioritizing AI.” and Henry Kautz, Division Director for Intelligent Information Systems (IIS) is helping to coordinate But while the private sector can drive breakthroughs on the application with the CCC. side of R&D, Kratsios added that the federal government has to be the leader in promoting basic research into the core concepts behind AI technology by leveraging its national labs and providing research funding to the nation’s colleges and universities.

6 cra.org/crn October 2018 Artificial Intelligence (continued)

“Our greatest inventions don’t happen because the president or an agency, by edict, decide that we shall do this. It is a collaborative, creative, free and open environment for scientific discovery,” he said. “You kind of see this zig-zag of progress through technology. It’s done through the creative, innovative spirit of America, rather than this top-down, heavy-handed industrial approach. For us, that’s what we are kind of doubling down on.”

In May, Kratsios and the White House hosted a White House AI for American Industry Summit with industry and academic stakeholders to discuss the future and promise of artificial intelligence. Then in June, the White House hosted the first meeting of the Interagency Select Committee on Artificial Intelligence (AI).

From the Readout From the Inaugural Meeting of the Select Committee on Artificial Intelligence:

The Select Committee was established under the National At the conclusion of the meeting, the co-chairs of the Select Science and Technology Council (NSTC) and is comprised of Committee issued the following joint statement: Artificial the most senior research and development (R&D) officials in intelligence has tremendous potential to benefit the American the Federal Government. people, and continued U.S. leadership in AI is critical to our national security and economic competitiveness. Advances in At the meeting, the Select Committee discussed policies AI are rapidly transforming nearly all aspects of our economic to prioritize AI research, better leverage Federal data and and occupational landscape, including how we navigate computing resources for the AI research community, and around our cities, manufacture goods and services, grow and train the next generation of American AI researchers. The distribute our food, respond to disasters and emergencies, Select Committee discussed its overall scope and the ways conduct financial transactions, treat and prevent disease, and it would work with and provide guidance to other AI- keep our nation safe. Delivering these benefits will require focused groups within the NSTC, such as the Subcommittee sustained Federal investment in AI research and a continued on Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence, and the pipeline of technical talent. Over the coming months, our newly established AI Interagency Working Group of Select Committee looks forward to working with the broader the Networking and Information Technology Research and AI research community to ensure that the United States Development Program. remains the global leader in artificial intelligence.

The CCC is very excited to be a part of this initiative and is looking forward to working with all the different sectors to build a Roadmap for AI. If you are interested in being involved in this initiative, please subscribe here for announcements.

This effort is similar to one of the CCC’s first activities, the Robotics Roadmap, which helped to launch the National Robotics Initiative in 2011 and the subsequent 2016 Robotics Roadmap and NRI 2.0.

By Jaime Teevan

waiting for a meeting to start, riding in an elevator, or standing in line. We waste this time on our phones, browsing the web or playing games, and yet these micromoments add up. People collectively spend 200 million minutes a day on Angry Birds alone. Just imagine what Angry Birds players could accomplish if they could leverage the small mobile bursts of effort they spend killing time to get something meaningful done instead.

People try to defrag their time by booking meetings with themselves, turning off their phones, and taking email vacations. But the research that I am conducting with Shamsi Iqbal and our fellow collaborators suggests that there is another way. Rather than fighting both our ancient nature and modern distractions by changing how we work, we can embrace fragmentation by changing our tasks to fit the way we actually do work. We call this microproductivity, in which large productivity tasks are broken down into a series of smaller microtasks that can each be completed individually.

People have attempted to accomplish large tasks by breaking them into manageable parts for millennia. The proverb “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step,” is Jaime Teevan attributed to the 6th century BCE philosopher Laozi. But because we now have the ability to algorithmically support task decomposition, we can break tasks into much smaller pieces than previously imaginable. Research shows that it takes 25 minutes to reach full Think, for example, of trying to write a blog post. The internet productivity after an interruption, yet we are interrupted every is littered with blogs with just two or three posts because it is 3 minutes. And even without external interruptions, our focus hard to consistently find the necessary hours to write a new is fragmented. We look at any given desktop window for an post. Take a microproductivity approach to writing, however, average of only 40 seconds, constantly self-interrupting to and it becomes easier. In your spare micromoments you can check email or Facebook. We also try to complete multiple tasks collect relevant ideas, adding snippets from articles you read, at once, even though we all know that multitasking typically grabbing sentences from emails, and jotting down thoughts fails. Our tendency to be easily distracted kept our hunter- that pop into your mind. These ideas can then be organized into and-gatherer ancestors alive when they needed to attend to an outline using a series of microtasks that ask you to assign potential predators, but now, in the safety of our offices, it is labels to the different ideas, which enables the underlying amazing we manage to get anything done.
