February 2009 Issue of the BEATCS

The February 2009 issue of the Bulletin of the EATCS is now available, and is freely accessible to anyone interested in perusing it---as it should be for the bulletin of any professional organization whose aim is to further the development of its scientific area.

This issue of the Bulletin features the first contribution to a brand new column, The Algorithmic Game Theory Column, edited by Marios Mavronikolas. In a Greek relay team, Panagiota Fatourou takes over from him as the new editor of the Column on Distributed Computing, whose latest instalment is devoted to a piece on the theory of transactional memory.

There is much to read and enjoy, as usual. Readers might notice, however, that the Concurrency Column is missing. Mea culpa....
