Lynn Conway (1938–2024)

Lynn Conway was an American computer scientist, electrical engineer, researcher and university professor whose work at Xerox PARC in the 1970s led to the integrated circuit design and manufacturing methodology known as Very Large Scale Integration, or VLSI, something which touches very many facets of the world that we live in today.

In 1979 sheand Carver Mead published Introduction to VLSI Systems, a textbook that stayed the definitive bible of integrated circuit design for more than a decade.

This publication praised her merits in August 2001 when she was 63 years old and now, 23 years later, at the age of 86, Lynn Conway has left this earth.

plink, nix,    praise or blame!

Oracle is now mentioned in the English Wikipedia article on teletext and even has its own article here. Electra has one too.

That's an adequate comment! Und das erste Zitat ein ganz besonders tolles Beispiel für den "Umschlag von Quantität in Qualität".
