On this day in 1941, #ACMTuringAward winner Amir Pnueli was born. Pnueli received the 1996 ACM Turing Award for seminal work introducing temporal logic into computing science and for outstanding contributions to program and system verification. Pnueli explained, “In mathematics, logic is static. It deals with connections among entities that exist in the same time frame. When one designs a dynamic computer system that has to react to ever changing conditions, … one cannot design the system based on a static view. It is necessary to characterize and describe dynamic behaviors that connect entities, events, and reactions at different time points. Temporal Logic deals therefore with a dynamic view of the world that evolves over time.” Read more about his contributions to computing: https://bit.ly/3vf1G19

On this day in 1931, #ACMTuringAward winner Frederick Brooks was born. Brooks received the 1999 ACM Turing Award for landmark contributions to computer architecture, operating systems, and software engineering. In this video, Brooks discusses the creation of IBM's System/360 architecture, and notes what he calls the most important decision of his career at IBM – his choice to standardize the 8-bit byte: https://bit.ly/3PhGezC

A 2015 report shocked us that the human attention span gets shorter every year (8 seconds at the time when the study was conducted). We have more information than ever, and we’ve lost our capacity for concentration, attention and analysis. (Source: https://lnkd.in/eBUbVY9) #linkedinpoll #attention #tech #thursdaythoughts

Congratulations to #ACMFellow David J. Kuck on receiving the 2024 IEEE Frances E. Allen Medal! He is recognized for pioneering work in vector and parallel computer architecture, software, and compilers that enables many performance-sensitive applications.
They say “many hands make light work.” The same is true of computing. #Parallelization breaks big tasks into smaller ones that can then be executed simultaneously across multiple processors. And we have Illinois Computer Science's David J. Kuck to thank. An IEEE, AAAS, and ACM, Association for Computing Machinery Fellow, he is one of #ParallelComputing's most preeminent figures. His foundational contributions have impacted every facet of modern #computing, including #hardware, #algorithms, #AI/ML, and more. Congratulations to him on his 2024 #IEEE Frances E. Allen Medal, sponsored by IBM, for pioneering work in vector and #ParallelComputer architecture, #software, and compilers that enables many performance-sensitive applications: https://bit.ly/43TG5YZ #IEEEAwards2024
