ALAN KAY “THE BEST WAY TO PREDICT THE FUTURE IS TO INVENT IT” Presented by: Brennen Taylor CSCE 221 – Spring 2014

BEGINNINGS Born on May 17, 1940 in Springfield, Massachusetts Father designed leg prostheses Mother was a musician Attended Brooklyn Technical High School

EARLY COMPUTER YEARS Introduced to computers when Kay entered the Air Force Started work with the IBM 1401 First started thinking about Object-Oriented Code design Left Air Force to attend college Undergraduate Degree At University of Colorado in 1966 Mathematics Molecular Biology

GRADUATE YEARS Moved to University of Colorado Masters degree in electrical engineering Ph. D. in computer science in 1969 Contributed to ARPA research Designed FLEX and published “Reactive Engine” thesis Influenced by Douglas Engelbart’s “Mother of all Demos” GUI interface Hypertext Mouse interaction

RESEARCH AT PARC Hired at Xerox Palo Alto Research Center (PARC) Designed Dynabook Touch screen Keyboard Designed and created SmallTalk First Object-Oriented language Ran on Alto computer

AFTER PARC Worked for Atari in 1983 Joined Apple in 1984 Developed Squeak Moved to Disney’s Imagineering Division in 1997 Continues to work on Squeak Actively works to get a personal computer for all children One Laptop Per Child Program Viewpoints Research Institute

AWARDS AND HONORS ACM Software Systems Award J-D Warnier Prix D'Informatique (2001) Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences Fellow of National Academy of Engineering Won ACM Turing Award in 2003 Pioneering ideas at root of object oriented programming Leading Smalltalk development team Fundamental contributions to personal computing Kyoto Prize in 2004
