A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
The author considers two problems whose solution will make a big difference both to computer science and to the larger world of which computing is now such an important part. One is an example of embodiment: cars that don't kill people. The other is a technology that applies across the board: writing programs automatically from specifications. The second obviously has many applications, but the first demands major advances in computing that will also have many other applications. They share a common theme: getting the computer to understand something; in one case roads, in the other specifications.
