Cybersecurity is an increasingly relevant concern in our society, but pop culture tells us virtually nothing useful about it.
Using AI to search for ET might help us find things we couldn't even imagine we should look for, but to succeed we also have think critically about how we create and use that technology.
Spot removes traditional barriers to reporting abusive behavior, because participants can log incidents without talking to a human.
Software tools for South Africa’s Nguni languages may assist with redress and effective communication.
VR is being applied to shopping, car manufacturing and exercise – but it remains a challenge to transport humans to new worlds with an acceptable sense of presence.
Scientists at the postwar Macy conferences sought a new vision of mind and society, but the digital world in which we now live is far removed from their dreams.
We prefer to go with our guts.
As companies make quantum computers available through their cloud services, take a look at what it means for computing to move beyond classical mechanics and into quantum physics.
There are many inspiring female computer scientists in and from Africa. They have the power to inspire young women who might think that computer science is 'only for men'.
Mentoring programs can be enormously valuable for students, both in terms of their academic performance and their professional development.
You might think you're anonymous when you're browsing the web. But a new study shows that browsing history can often be tied to your real-world identity.

The first in our series looking at the changes that have been made in computing and other areas in the 60 years since the first computer in an Australian university was switched on.
Scientists uncover hidden mathematical structures controlling how living cells operate. If this could be used by computers of the future, we may one day be able to understand the brain.
President Obama wants every student to learn computer science. Are separate computing classes the only way to do this?
