Tolong jelaskan mengenai Aktivitas dari Association for Computing Machinery

ACM diatur menjadi 170 bagian("chapter") lokal dan 34 grup minat khusus (special interest group, SIG), di mana mereka melakukan kebanyakan kegiatan mereka.

Banyak dari SIG, seperti SIGGRAPH, SIGPLAN dan SIGCOMM, mensponsori konferensi teratur yang menjadi terkenal sebagai acara utama untuk memperkenalkan inovasi baru dalam bidang tertentu. SIG juga menerbitkan sejumlah jurnal khusus, majalah, dan surat berita.

ACM juga mensponsori acara yang berhubungan dengan ilmu komputer seperti

ACM International Collegiate Programming Contest (ICPC) yang mendunia, dan telah mensponsori beberapa acara lainnya, seperti pertandingan catur antara Garry Kasparov dan komputer IBM Deep Blue.

Journal of the ACM, and general magazines for computer professionals, Communications of the ACM and Queue. Many of the great debates in the history of computing have taken place in the pages of Communications. Examples include the famous "GOTO considered harmful" letter, the issue of what to call the then-fledgling field of computer science, and the issue of changing ACM's name (since the "machinery" in question is no longer the size of a house and is now measured in micrometres). All three attempts at changing ACM's name have failed.

ACM has made almost all of its publications available online at its Digital Library and also has a Guide to Computing Literature. It also offers insurance and other services to its members.
