Abstract

A longstanding interest in the Office of Computing Activities, National Science Foundation, in the impact of computers on society has, over the past two years, evolved rapidly into a new administrative unit, the Computer Impact on Society Section in OCA. This nebulous area has already been given form through a set of funded grant proposals. Some expected future directions of growth for the program are discussed.
