11 Ada Augusta Byron Lovelace
Born: Died: 1852 at age 36 Considered to be the “First Computer Programmer” Daughter of the English Poet Lord George Byron Very talented mathematician 1830’s – Babbage designed “Analytical Engine” L.F. Menebrea wrote a article describing the function and theory of the A.E. in French Babbage urged Ada to translate the article into English Her added notes were 3 times the length of the original article Included diagrams which showed steps used to instruct AE to solve particular problems Late 1970’s government created programming language was named “Ada” in her honor Presented by: Anna Marchuk

12 Daniel Hillis By Jose Millin
Is an American inventor, entrepreneur and author Discoveries in parallel computing Designed the Connection Machine Cofounded the Thinking Machine Cooperation Purpose was to develop parallel super computers And also to explore pathways to building artificial intelligence

13 About Howard Aiken He studied on the University of Madison.
Obtained his Doctorate from Harvard in 1939. As a graduate student from Harvard he was at the same time the Instructor for the department of Physics, where he began to planned to build a large computer. His research in computers led to a system of deferential equations, which had no exact solutions and could only be solved using mathematical techniques. He made: The ASCC (Automatic Sequence Controlled Calculator) in IBM laboratories, and computers Mark I, Mark II, Mark III. About Howard Aiken Presented by: Edward Nunez
