Edsger W. Dikjstra was originally from Holland, and while working his way through college, decided to devote more time to programming and less to theoretical physics, eventually becoming a early programmer in the just-developing profession. He was a professor in the Department of Computer Sciences at the University of Texas at Austin. It isn't very clear what his connection was to Burroughs. From the description of Edsger Wybe Dijkstra papers, 1971-1979. (University of Minnesota, Min...

The American Federation of Information Processing Societies (AFIPS) was established on May 10, 1961 to advance and disseminate knowledge in the field of information science, and to represent member societies on an international level. The federation was an outgrowth of the National Joint Computer Committee, which was established in 1951 to sponsor the Joint Computer Conferences. One of the main contributions of AFIPS was its sponsorship of the Joint Computer Conference, renamed the National Comp...
