The Link Magazine

Martial Hebert: Looking Ahead

The magazine of Carnegie Mellon University's School of Computer Science

Its name recognizes the pioneering work of two of the School of Computer Science's co-founders, Allen Newell and Herb Simon, who invented the use of linked-list data structures for representing complex information.

But it also serves as the link between the School of Computer Science and more than 10,000 alumni, colleagues, parents and other friends around the world.

With no margin for mistakes, control systems for surgical robots must as error-proof as possible
The power of play

A ‘killer app’ for teaching math, developed by an HCII Ph.D. student, draws heavily on large-scale data analysis
In the Loop: David Garlan

David Garlan (CS’83,’87) is a professor in the Institute for Software Research and the Computer Science Department, and director of SCS’s Professional Software Engineering Programs.
Changes—for the better

We have some very exciting things to tell you about—including a new undergraduate scholarship and the 25th anniversary of the founding of the School of Computer Science—but let me first tell you about the last few months.

Dean’s message

Maker culture and Mr. Waseleski
Bits and bytes meet nuts and bolts

As ‘maker culture’ emerges at SCS, manufacturing skills are melding with software development to power new innovations
Who shares your data?

A CMU-led research team is taking a hard look at those lengthy privacy policies that most of us ignore—and it wants to help us understand them
