Rod Van Meter is in search of some summer reading:
I'm feeling the need to recharge my store of ideas, and I have the
nagging feeling that my lack of currency in a bunch of fields is
causing me to miss some connections I could use in my own research.So, I'm looking for a reading list of, say, the one hundred most
important papers of the decade. It doesn't have to be an even
hundred, but I'm looking for a good summer's reading. (Given that
it's mid-2009, now would be a good time to start composing such a list
anyway, depending on where you want to place the "decade" boundary.)I want these papers to cover *ALL* fields of computer science and
engineering; I am by nature catholic in my reading.
Head over to his site and help out with your favorite gem of CS/engineering!

During my summer blogging break, I thought I'd repost of few of my "greatest hits" from my old blog, just so you all wouldn't miss me so much. This one is from July 3, 2007. It's one of the most popular posts I've done, and it was linked quite widely in the science blogosphere. The interview…
Gleðileg Jól!

You're in grad school. Yay.
Now wtf do you do...
Well, you need to jump through the hurdles first.
Most places have some course and seminar requirements, you may in some cases test out of them or waive them, but think about whether you…
I posted my summer reading list to his account ... and thus far, am the only one to have done so ... maybe everyone is living exclusively on the blog-sphere? :)
Thanks for the plug, Dave.
Thanks for the suggestion, John, definitely a topic I wouldn't have found otherwise! Jim's automata suggestion is also intriguing, and I would *never* have found the reader's guide, with its indirect reference to the title.
(A list of the "post-Mike&Ike Fifty", fifty papers for my students to read after Mike & Ike, is another project on my list, but that's for another day...)
