Towards 2020 Science
A scientific revolution is just beginning. It has the potential to create an era of science-based innovation that could eclipse the last half century of technology-based innovation, and with it, a new wave of global social, technological and economic growth. The basis for this revolution is the convergence of computer science and the natural sciences.
The convergence of computer science and science has the potential to profoundly transform science, and equally profound implications for understanding, and responding to, some of the greatest challenges in the 21st Century, such as loss of Earth's life support systems, future energy and disease.
Towards 2020 Science is an ambitious report from an international group of scientists assessing how computing and computer science are already transforming science to address such challenges, and must continue to do so towards 2020.
