https://www.bell-labs.com/unix50/event/ Celebrating 50 years of Unix We are commemorating Unix’s anniversary with the Unix50 event, a two-day celebration that will reflect on Unix’s past and explore the future of computing. Speakers and panelists include many of the original team that built Unix and designed the C programming language, as well as luminaries in the fields of computing and robotics. The event will also feature a gallery of Unix artifacts, a coding challenge requiring students to program robots to navigate the industrial spaces of the future, and numerous other activities drawing on Unix’s rich and colorful history at Bell Labs. Check back soon for videos and photos captured from the event.

A questo proposito, per chi ancora non lo conoscesse segnalo questo bel lavoro di archeologia software fatto da Diomidis Spinellis qualche anno fa: https://github.com/dspinellis/unix-history-repo Un preprint del paper associato è qui: http://www.neurorider.com/pub/unix_history.pdf Ce ne siamo ispirati per il processo di recupero, cura, e preservazione di software in Software Heritage (codename: SWHAP) che abbiamo annunciato la settimana scorsa in collaborazione con l'università di Pisa: https://www.softwareheritage.org/swhap/ A presto -- Stefano Zacchiroli . zack@upsilon.cc . upsilon.cc/zack . . o . . . o . o Computer Science Professor .

A tal proposito, per chi non l'avesse notato (io l'ho scoperto solo ieri) Brian Kernighan sarà presente a Torino per il Festival della Tecnologia. https://www.festivaltecnologia.it/sessioni/milioni-miliardi-fantastiliardi-c... Non è forse il suo campo di specialità e non vorrei essere off-topic, ma spero di avere occasione di chiedergli la sua visione sulla complessità dei linguaggi di programmazione emergenti e sull'uso del Web come surrogato di un sistema operativo distribuito.

Ciao Giacomo, grazie molte per la segnalazione. Sarà sicuramente possibile interagire con Brian Kernighan. Preciso solo che - vista l'età - la sua partecipazione sarà da remoto. Grazie ancora, juan carlos On 22/10/2019 22:40, Giacomo Tesio wrote:
