Biographical notes:
The History of Programming Languages Conference was organized by the Special Interest Group in Programming Languages of the Association for Computing Machinery, and took place in Los Angeles on June 1-3, 1978. The purpose of the conference was to provide a written record for programming languages that were created by 1967, remained in use by 1977, and influence the field of computing. Speakers included those who had played a major part in the development and use of ALGOL, APL, APT, BASIC, COBOL, FORTRAN, GPSS, JOSS, JOVIAL, LISP, PL/I, SIMULA, AND SNOBOL. Jean E. Sammet served as general and program committee chairman, and John A. N. Lee was the administrative chairman. Proceedings of the conference were edited by Richard L. Wexelblat and published in 1981.
