| Computer science research is an interesting phenomenon as it's a science of artifacts (aka computers) that provide human users with tools to harness the underlying computation and communication possibilities. Without doubt, positive impact on technology and society is what we strive for with our work. My view is that impactful research starts with "relevant" research, while this "relevance" in Computer Science is more difficult and important than in natural sciences. In this talk, I will discuss what this "relevance" means in Computer Science, and give my personal view on how to be "relevant" in your research. | |
