U-Ken Thompson - uphuhliso lomsebenzi we-UNIX no-C ulwimi

U-Ken Thompson wayenomdla ngeengcinga ukusuka ebuntwaneni. Njengoko waqaphela kamva, nakwiziko lesiprayimari uza kuxazulula iingxaki ze-arithmetic kwi-binary system. Olu thando lwamkhokelela kwikompyutha, apho iziphumo zakhe zazingenakuqhathaniswa kwaye zisoloko ziqala.

UKen Thompson: Funda

Ngo-1943, uKen wazalwa eNew Orleans, eLouana. Ubusheni bakhe uKen Thompson wafunda kwiYunivesithi yaseCalifornia eBerkeley. Ngo-1965-1966 wafumana i-degree ye-bachelor degree kunye ne-degree degree kwii-electronics kunye neenkqubo zenkcazelo. Umphathi wakhe nguAlvin Berlekkamp.

Sebenza kwiBell Labs

Ngowe-1966, uKen Thompson, isosayensi enekhono elikhulu, wavunyelwa kwi-corporation enamandla iBell Labs, eyaziwa ngokuba yindawo ephezulu kunye neyona ndawo iphakamileyo yophando kwi-electronics kunye nekhompyutheni yobuchwepheshe. Ikomkhulu layo liseMurray Hill. Ngaphambi kokufika kwabaphuhlisi abatsha, iBell Labs yenzelwe iMAC. Kwisakhelo sayo, i-CTSS yadalwa. Emva koko lebhu yaqala ukusebenza kwi-Multix.

Apha, uKen wadibana noDennis Ritchie. Baba ngabantu abanomdla kwaye baqala ukusebenza kunye nezinye izazinzulu zebhubhoratri. UKen Thompson noDennis Ritchie babona ikusasa emva kweekhompyutha kwiikhomputha ezincinane. Bayaqonda ukuba ezo iikhomputha zifuna indlela elawula i-hardware yekhompyutha, esebenzayo kunye neefayile, iqhuba iinkqubo zesicelo, imisebenzi yokufakelwa kunye nemveliso. Ngoko kwakukho imbono yokudala inkqubo entsha yokusebenza. Bonke aba-70 ba-Thompson noRitchie basebenza kwi-UNIX. Iinguqulelo zakhe zokuqala zenziwe ngu Thompson ngokuphantse, kwaye uRitchie wajoyina kamva.

Ngesinye isikhathi uKen Thompson wasungula ulwimi lweBhon, kwaye ngoko-ulwimi lwaseB, ngesiseko apho i-C yakhiwa kamva, kwaye yaqala ukuphuhlisa umdlalo "Uhambo lwendawo". Umdlalo ufanise inkqubo yelanga kunye nemizimba yawo. Kwakudingeka ukuba i-spacecraft ipalwe kwiiplanethi okanye kwi-satellites. Ibhubhoratri yashiya iphrojekthi ye-Multix. Ngowe-1969, uTh Thompson noRitchie bavelise inkqubo yokusebenza ye-UNICS, kamva yafumana igama lamanje le-UNIX. UThompson wadala umhleli we-Qed kwi-CTSS, elaliquka amazwi aqhelekileyo ekusebenziseni imigca ebhaliweyo. Le projekthi yenza amazwi aqhelekileyo adumile kwiprogram, kwaye kungekhona nje kwimilo. Zihlala zisetyenziswa kwi-UNIX kwiiprogram zokucwangcisa amagama. Kule mihla, ezininzi iinkqubo ezisetyenziselwa ukusetyenziswa kwamagama zisebenzisa u-Thompson ukuqaphela. UKen naye waqulunqa i-algorithm enegama lakhe ukuguqula amagama rhoqo kwi-nondeterministic yomshini wombuso.

Sebenza kwiinkqubo ze-chess

Ukususela ngekhulu le-XVIII, abantu baye bazama ukwenza ii-machine chess. Inzame yaphumelela ngo-1983, xa uThompson noConon bakha i-Belle, ikhompyutha yokuqala ukufikelela kumgangatho we-chess master. UThomas wabhala inkqubo yokubhalwa ngokugcwele kwemidlalo ye-4-6. Kamva, ngoncedo lwengcali ye-chess, uJohn Roikroft, wabhalela kwi-CD-ROM. UGarry Kasparov watshitshisa ikhompyutha entsha ye chess ngo-1994.

Eminye imisebenzi

Phakathi ne-80s, uThomas kwiBell Labs yaqalisa ukuyila i-OS entsha eyayifanele ibe yindawo yokubuyisela i-UNIX. Kwabizwa ngokuba "isicwangciso 9". Kwakhona ngeli xesha wayevavanya iinguqu zokuqala zeelwimi zeC ++, kodwa wabonisa isimo sengqondo esingalunganga kuye, engavumi iimbono ezakha isiseko solimi.

Ngowe-1992, kunye noRob Pike, wavelisa i-UTF-8 encoding, eyaba yintloko kwiWebhu Yehlabathi. Kwiminyaka engama-90, kunye noRitchie kunye nabanye abaphandi baseBell Labs, waqala inkqubo yokwenza inkqubo ye-Inferno.

Ngo-2000, uThomas washiya iLell Labs. Kuze kube ngo-2006, wayesebenzela i-Entrisphere, waza wabuyela kwiGoogle, apho asebenza khona kwi-Go. Loo uswazi wesayensi kwixesha elizayo unokubonakalisa zonke izinto zakhe zokudala.

Ken Thompson: Impumelelo

Into ebalulekileyo ebomini bakhe kukuba kudalwa i-UNIX kunye nolwimi lwenkqubo C. uKen Thompson, ochazwe ngaye kwinqaku, wafumana amanqaku amaninzi ebomini bakhe.

Ngo-1983 uM Thompson noRitchie bafumana i-Turing Award. Ngowe-1990, wanikezwa iindondo zikaRichard Hamming ezivela kwi-IEEE ekudalweni kolwimi lwe-UNIX no-C. Ngo-1994 wanikezwa "indleko yezobuchwephesha bekhompyutha", kunye kunye noRitchie. Ngo-1999, uMongameli uBill Clinton wanikela uT Thompson noRitchie iMedal National. Ngo-1999, uThomas wathola umvuzo wokuqala we-Institute of Electronics and Engineers inxaxheba yakhe ekudalweni kwe-UNIX OS, ngowama-2003, kunye neRitchie - i-Harold Pender Award. IJapan nayo yaqaphela ukuphuhliswa kwayo okutsha (umvuzo we-2011).
