[SIGCIS-Members] The Communicators

[Petri Paju]

Here's another idea on this line from Germany:

Rolf Strehl: Die Roboter Sind Unter Uns: Ein Tatsachenbericht. Oldenburg 1952. 

Title goes Robots Are Among Us. It is a story about the computer and as I recall more factual (better) than the main title suggests. They translated this into at least Finnish. It came out as Aikamme robotit (Robots of our times) in 1954.

Best wishes,
Petri

These proceedings in French of a large European conference are almost unknown:

Pérès, Joseph (ed.): Les machines à calculer et la pensée humaine, Paris, 8–13 janvier 1951, Colloques internationaux du Centre national de la recherche scientifique, No. 37, Editions du Centre national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS), Paris 1953, xix, 570 pages

I’m interested in a new-to-me research angle: the people who changed computing by writing about it.

Lovelace comes to mind. So do Vannevar Bush and Edmund Berkeley.


  1.  Who else should I consider from prior to 1965? (I have the microcomputer generation covered.)
  2.  Are there existing papers on this subject?
