1967 Maurice V. Wilkes

Known as the builder and designer of the EDSAC, the first computer with an internally stored program. Built in 1949, the EDSAC used a mercury delay line memory. He is also known as the author, with Wheeler and Gill, of a volume on "Preparation of Programs for Electronic Digital Computers" in 1951, in which program libraries were effectively introduced.

1968 Richard W. Hamming


His work on numerical methods, automatic coding systems, and error-detecting and error-correcting codes.

1969 Marvin Minsky(AI)


Marvin Minsky has made many contributions to AI, cognitive psychology, mathematics, computational linguistics, robotics, and optics. In recent years he has worked chiefly on imparting to machines the human capacity for commonsense reasoning.

1970 J.H. Wilkinson


His research in numerical analysis to facilitiate the use of the high-speed digital computer, having received special recognition for his work in computations in linear algebra and "backward" error analysis.

1971 John McCarthy(AI)


Dr. McCarthy's lecture "The Present State of Research on Artificial Intelligence" is a topic that covers the area in which he has achieved considerable recognition for his work. McCarthy invented the Lisp programming language In fact, he was responsible for the coining of the term "Artificial Intelligence".

1972 Edsger W. Dijkstra


Principal contributor in the late 1950's to the development of the ALGOL, a high level programming language which has become a model of clarity and mathematical rigor. He is one of the principal exponents of the science and art of programming languages in general, and has greatly contributed to our understanding of their structure, representation, and implementation. His fifteen years of publications extend from theoretical articles on graph theory to basic manuals, expository texts, and philosophical contemplations in the field of programming languages. Dijkstra came up with the "shortest-path algorithm".


1973 Charles W. Bachman


His outstanding contributions to database technology.

1974 Donald E. Knuth


His major contributions to the analysis of algorithms and the design of programming languages, and in particular for his contributions to the "art of computer programming" through his well-known books in a continuous series by this title.

1975 Allen Newell (AI) and Herbert A. Simon (AI)


In joint scientific efforts extending over twenty years, initially in collaboration with J. C. Shaw at the RAND Corporation, and sub-sequentially with numerous faculty and student colleagues at Carnegie-Mellon University, they have made basic contributions to artificial intelligence, the psychology of human cognition, and list processing.

1976 Michael O. Rabin and Dana S. Scott


Their joint paper on "Finite Automata and Their Decision Problem," which introduced the idea of non-deterministic machines, which has proved to be an enormously valuable concept. Their (Scott & Rabin) classic paper has been a continuous source of inspiration for subsequent work in this field.

1978 Robert W. Floyd


Influence on methodologies for the creation of efficient and reliable software, and for helping to found the following important sub-fields of computer science: the theory of parsing, the semantics of programming languages, automatic program verification, automatic program synthesis, and analysis of algorithms.

1979 Kenneth E. Iverson


His pioneering effort in programming languages and mathematical notation resulting in what the computing field now knows as APL, for his contributions to the implementation of interactive systems, to educational uses of APL, and to programming language theory and practice.

1980 C. Antony R. Hoare


His fundamental contributions to the definition and design of programming languages.

1981 Edgar F. Codd


Fundamental and continuing contributions to the theory and practice of database management systems. He originated the relational approach to database management in a series of research papers published commencing in 1970. His paper "A Relational Model of Data for Large Shared Data Banks" was a seminal paper, in a continuing and carefully developed series of papers. Dr. Codd built upon this space and in doing so has provided the impetus for widespread research into numerous related areas, including database languages, query subsystems, database semantics, locking and recovery, and inferential subsystems.

1982 Stephen A. Cook


His advancement of our understanding of the complexity of computation in a significant and profound way. His seminal paper, "The Complexity of Theorem Proving Procedures," presented at the 1971 ACM SIGACT Symposium on the Theory of Computing, Laid the foundations for the theory of NP-Completeness. The ensuing exploration of the boundaries and nature of NP-complete class of problems has been one of the most active and important research activities in computer science for the last decade.

1983 Ken Thompson and Dennis M. Ritchie


Their development of generic operating systems theory and specifically for the implementation of the UNIX operating system.

1984 Niklaus Wirth


Developing a sequence of innovative computer languages, EULER, ALGOL-W, MODULA and PASCAL. PASCAL has become pedagogically significant and has provided a foundation for future computer language, systems, and architectural research.

1985 Richard M. Karp


His continuing contributions to the theory of algorithms including the development of efficient algorithms for network flow and other combinatorial optimization problems, the identification of polynomial-time computability with the intuitive notion of algorithmic efficiency, and, most notably, contributions to the theory of NP-completeness. Karp introduced the now standard methodology for proving problems to be NP-complete which has led to the identification of many theoretical and practical problems as being computationally difficult.

1986 John E. Hopcroft


Fundamental achievements in the design and analysis of algorithms and data structures.

1986 Robert E. Tarjan


Fundamental achievements in the design and analysis of algorithms and data structures.

1988 Ivan E. Sutherland


His pioneering and visionary contributions to computer graphics, starting with Sketchpad, and continuing after. Sketchpad, though written twenty-five years ago, introduced many techniques still important today. These include a display file for screen refresh, a recursively traversed hierarchical structure for modeling graphical objects, recursive methods for geometric transformations, and an object oriented programming style. Later innovations include a "Lorgnette" for viewing stereo or colored images, and elegant algorithms for registering digitized views, clipping polygons, and representing surfaces with hidden lines.
