WHO? WHAT? WHERE? WHY? WHEN?

Grace Murray Hopper Mother of Cobol) is one of America’s most famous pioneers in computer science. In 1944, she was one of the first programmers of the Marvard Mark 1 electro-mechanical computer, and developed in 1952 the first compiler for a computer programmer language. She conceptualized the idea of machine- independent programming languages, which led to the development of COBOL, one of the first modern programming languages.

WHO? WHAT? WHERE? WHY? WHEN?

First all female programming team ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator And Computer), launched in 1946, was probably the world’s first general-purpose electronic digital computer. Eniac’s key 6 member programming team were all women,

WHO? WHAT? WHERE? WHY? WHEN?

Ada Lovelace is recognised as the world’s first computer programmer. In 1842 she wrote the first ever algorithm for processing numbers on Charles Bannage’s early mechanical general purpose computer or analytical engine who, so impressed by her mathematical skills, referred to her as ‘ The Enchantress of Numbers”. The computer language ADA was named after her.

WHO? WHAT? WHERE? WHY? WHEN?

Hedy Lamarr one of the legendary stars of Hollywood’s ‘Golden Age’, famed in such films as Algiers, Samson & Delilah and White Cargo, co-designed in 1941 a radio guided torpedo system based on ‘frequency hopping’ (changing) which became known as spectrum spread, a key element later in the anti- jamming devices used by the US Melstar military satellite communications system

WHO? WHAT? WHERE? WHY? WHEN?

Jean E Sammet Jean E. Sammet graduated with an MA in Mathematics in In 1961, she became manager of IBM’s Programming Center in Boston and oversaw the development of FORMAC (FORmula MAnipulation Compiler), the first widely used general language and the first to manipulate symbolic algebraic expressions.
