**Abstract:** On July 13, 2023, the Second Purple Banyan Computer Science Development Forum was held at Tsinghua University, bringing together nearly fifty prominent university presidents, distinguished experts, and scholars from mainland China, Hong Kong, and Macao. This forum focused on the critical issue of building a new era of computer science evaluation mechanisms, reflecting the ongoing changes in scientific research paradigms and the increasing importance of interdisciplinary collaboration. **Opening Remarks:** The forum was opened by Professor Xia Yin, the Chair of Tsinghua University's Department of Computer Science, who welcomed the guests and provided an overview of the forum's background and objectives. Professor Yin emphasized the need for a robust evaluation system that aligns with the evolving nature of computer science, highlighting the importance of激励制度 (incentive systems) in fostering innovation. She expressed hope that the discussions would address key challenges and contribute to the high-quality development of computer science in China. **Keynote Speeches:** Several keynote speeches were delivered by leading figures in the field: - **Professor Yike Guo** (Chief Vice President of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and Foreign Member of the UK Royal Academy of Engineering) spoke on "Reforming Computer Science in the Age of Artificial Intelligence." He discussed the knowledge structure and curriculum required for AI researchers and called for a collaborative effort to meet the challenges of reform. - **Professor Yaning Zhang** (Vice President of Northwest Polytechnical University) presented "Innovation and Reflections on Evaluation Elements in the New Era of Computer Science." Her speech covered the historical context of computer science evaluation and explored the three core elements—knowledge creation, knowledge transmission, and knowledge application—relevant to the discipline's future. - **Professor Dan Feng** (Vice President of Huazhong University of Science and Technology) addressed "Exploring and Practicing the Cultivation of Outstanding and Innovative Talent in Computer Science." She outlined the strategic, societal, and international contexts influencing computer science education and shared specific practices and reflections from Huazhong University. **Theme Reports:** Eight professors delivered theme reports, each focusing on different aspects of computer science development and evaluation: - **Professor Xiaofang Zhou** (Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology) discussed "Progress in Artificial Intelligence Education at HKUST," highlighting the institution's advancements in AI education. - **Professor Xia Yin** (Tsinghua University) shared her thoughts on "Reflections on Evaluation Mechanisms in Computer Science," emphasizing the need for a comprehensive and dynamic evaluation system. - **Professor Zhenjiang Hu** (Dean of the School of Computer Science, Peking University) presented on the "101 Plan: Practice of Computer Science Education Reform Focused on Classroom Improvement," detailing a classroom-centric approach to educational reform. - **Professor Jianliang Xu** (Department of Computer Science, Hong Kong Baptist University) explored "Explorations and Reflections on Interdisciplinary Research and Course Design," discussing the integration of interdisciplinary approaches in computer science education. - **Professor Yunhong Wang** (Dean of the School of Computer Science, Beihang University) spoke on "Positioning and Reflections on the Development of Computer Science in the New Era," offering insights into the strategic positioning of the discipline. - **Professor Fan Wu** (Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Shanghai Jiao Tong University) focused on "Human-Centric Approaches to Discipline Development," advocating for a people-focused strategy in advancing computer science. - **Professor Zhongjie Wang** (Director of the School of Computing, Harbin Institute of Technology) discussed "Diverse Evaluation Mechanisms for Computing Disciplines Driven by Impact," proposing a multi-faceted evaluation system based on impact. - **Professor Hong Cheng** (Department of Systems Engineering and Engineering Management, Chinese University of Hong Kong) introduced "An Overview of Discipline Construction at CUHK's Systems Engineering and Engineering Management Department," providing a case study of successful discipline building. **Roundtable Discussions:** The forum included two roundtable discussions: - **"Exploring Computer Science Evaluation Mechanisms"** was moderated by **Academician Jianping Wu** (Dean of the Institute of Network Science and Cyberspace, Tsinghua University). Participants, including Professors Yaning Zhang, Dan Feng, Yaning Wu, Xiaofang Zhou, and Zhantao Zhou, discussed the evolution of evaluation mechanisms, the relationship between interdisciplinary research and evaluation, the influence of globalization, and the impact of evaluation metrics on young talent development. - **"Mechanisms for Cultivating Computer Science Talent"** was led by Professor Xiaofang Zhou. The panel, comprising Professors Zhenjiang Hu, Jianliang Xu, Fan Wu, Zhongjie Wang, and Hong Cheng, along with other attendees, explored the cultivation of talent in the AI era, the alignment of educational goals with industry needs, innovative teaching models, and the role of internationalization in talent development. **Background:** The inaugural Purple Banyan Computer Science Development Forum was held at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology on June 16-17, 2023. The forum aims to foster collaboration among universities and promote the innovative development of computer science. By addressing key issues in evaluation and talent cultivation, the forum seeks to enhance the quality and relevance of computer science education and research in China. **Conclusion:** The Second Purple Banyan Computer Science Development Forum successfully convened leading experts to discuss and propose solutions for the evolving landscape of computer science. The event underscored the importance of interdisciplinary approaches, international collaboration, and dynamic evaluation mechanisms in nurturing the next generation of computer scientists and driving the field's continuous innovation. The insights and strategies shared during the forum are expected to contribute significantly to the advancement of computer science in China and beyond.
