Grand Challenges in Computing Research
Welcome to the homepage of the Grand Challenges Exercise, an enterprise of the UKCRC (UK Computing Research Committee) to discuss possibilities and opportunities for the advancement of computing research, particularly in the UK.Its method is to solicit submissions from the UK computer research community, identifying ambitious, long-term research initiatives that might benefit from some degree of national and international coordination.
Information can be found on separate pages about the background to the Grand Challenges Exercise and also the criteria of maturity for a Grand Challenge.
The Exercise is ongoing. To view details of the current Grand Challenges please go to the Current Grand Challenges page; here you will find links to each of the current Challenges. Of course, the current Grand Challenge proposals do not exhaust the possibilities.
The Grand Challenges Steering Committee is now soliciting for new ideas, which can be mounted on this website in order to attract support for them. Please go to soliciting new suggestions for Grand Challenges, where you will find where and in what form to send them.
