Computing’s Woodstock. People in 1976 talking about their projects for the first time, like ENIAC and Colossus
These jump out for me:
- The COLOSSUS by Brian Randell (one of the earliest disclosures)
- A Programmer’s Early Memories by Edsger W. Dijkstra
- From ENIAC to the Stored-Program Computer: Two Revolutions in Computers by Arthur W. Burks
- Early History of Programming Languages by Donald Knuth
- Computers in the University of London, 1945-1962 by Andrew D. Booth
