Abstract
This year will see hundreds of events worldwide— large and small—celebrating the 100th anniversary of Alan Turing’s birth and raising awareness of Turing, his contributions, and the fundamental importance of computing and computer science. At ACM we had a long discussion of how best to mark this special anniversary and serve the memory and significance of Alan Turing and celebrate our field. In the end, we decided to focus the ACM Turing Centenary Celebration on our most visible and relevant connection to Turing—the ACM Turing Award and its winners.
