Computing Professionals : Changing Needs for the 1990s PDF
by National Research Council, Division on Engineering and Physical Sciences, Office of Scientific and Engineering Personnel, Computer Science and Telecommunications Board, A Workshop Prepared by the Steering Committee on Human Resources in Computer Science and Technology
Description
Surprisingly little is known about the people responsible for advancing the science, technology, and application of computing systems, despite their critical roles in the U.S. economy. As a group, they can be referred to as "computing professionals." But that label masks an unusually wide range of occupations. To add to the confusion, the nature of these occupations is changing rapidly in response to dramatic advances in technology.
Building from discussions at a workshop, this book explores the number, composition, demand, and supply of computing professionals in the United States. It identifies key issues and sources of data and illuminates options for improving our understanding of these important occupational groups.
