Save the Date!!

Co-founded by Dr. Anita Borg and Dr. Telle Whitney in 1994 and inspired by the legacy of Admiral Grace Murray Hopper, the Institute's Grace Hopper Celebration (GHC) Of Women In Computing Conference is designed to bring the research and career interests of women in computing to the forefront. It is the largest technical conference for women in computing and results in collaborative proposals, networking and mentoring for junior women and increased visibility for the contributions of women in computing. Conference presenters are leaders in their respective fields, representing industry, academia and government. Top researchers present their work while special sessions focus on the role of women in today's technology fields.
Four Grace Hopper Celebration Conferences have been held (conference posters above) reaching over 1500 participants. The 1994 conference was held in Washington D.C. followed by the 1997 conference in San Jose, CA and the 2000 conference in Cape Cod, MA. The 2002 GHC conference was held October 9th-12th, in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The theme for the 2002 conference was "Ubiquity".

Rear Admiral Grace Murray Hopper
December 9, 1906 - January 1, 1992
In the world of technology, most women do not get the recognition that Rear Admiral Dr. Grace Murray Hopper has received. Hopper is the mother of computing. Her development of the first computer compiler and the first computer programming language helped revolutionize the world of computers. Although Hopper had a career decorated with many rewards, she had to prove herself repeatedly. She once said, & quote "If you do something once, people will call it an accident. If you do it twice, they call it a coincidence. But do it a third time and you've just proven a natural law!" She holds honoree doctorates from over thirty universities and many of her writings have influenced programs made today. Perseverance and knowledge are two traits that made her a great leader. She was determined not to let anyone get in the way of her vision of creating a much wider audience for computing.

The server for this lab is named "Grace" in honor of one of the MIS pioneers, Grace Murray Hopper (1906-1992). She was born in New York City, graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Vassar, earned MA and Ph.D. degrees at Yale, and returned to Vassar as an assistant professor of mathematics. During World War II, she was commissioned in the U.S. Naval Reserve as a second lieutenant and, as a senior mathematician with Sperry Rand, worked on the first commercial computer and played an important role in the development of the Mark I computer at the Harvard Computational Laboratory directed by Howard Aiken. Later, she worked with J. Presper Eckert and John Mauchly on the UNIVAC I. Years afterward, Hopper recalled, "Those were precarious days. We used to say if UNIVAC I didn't work, we were just going to throw it out one side of the factory, which was a junkyard, and we were going to jump out the other side, which was a cemetery!" But it was a success, and she went on to play a leading role in the development of the COBOL programming language, which at the time was a breakthrough event. In 1991, Admiral Grace Hopper was awarded the National Medal of Technology.

By Mary Bellis Grace Hopper - Biography Grace Hopper (1906-1992) was one of the first programmers to transform large digital computers from oversized calculators into relatively intelligent machines capable of understanding "human" instructions. Hopper invented the first computer "compiler" in 1952. A compiler is software that makes other computer software called programming languages easier to write. Computer programmers had been required to write programming instructions in binary code, a series of 0's and 1's. Grace Hopper's compiler allowed programmers to use more human sounding language commands to replace repetitive commands.

By Mary Bellis Howard Aiken and Grace Hopper designed the MARK series of computers at Harvard University. The MARK series of computers began with the Mark I in 1944. Imagine a giant roomful of noisy, clicking metal parts, 55 feet long and 8 feet high. The 5-ton device contained almost 760,000 separate pieces. Used by the US Navy for gunnery and ballistic calculations, the Mark I was in operation until 1959. The computer, controlled by pre-punched paper tape, could carry out addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and reference to previous results. It had special subroutines for logarithms and trigonometric functions and used 23 decimal place numbers. Data was stored and counted mechanically using 3000 decimal storage wheels, 1400 rotary dial switches, and 500 miles of wire. Its electromagnetic relays classified the machine as a relay computer. All output was displayed on an electric typewriter. By today's standards, the Mark I was slow, requiring 3-5 seconds for a multiplication operation.

Her career began when she joined the Navy and was assigned to work with Commander Howard Aitken at Harvard on the Mark 1. It was here she coined the term, "debugging" when a moth caused the Mark II to fail. In 1949 she joined the Eckert-Mauchly Corporation where she designed the first compiler, A-0. The industry group developing COBOL, partially supervised by Hopper, used Flowmatic, a business programming language she had developed as a model. Hopper become known as the grandmother of COBOL. Besides her work on COBOL, Hopper was known for her technical vision and ideas on computer applications and for tools for compiling and programming such as subroutines, relative addressing, linking loaders, code optimization and symbolic manipulation.

The Grace Hopper '28 Home Page
Grace Murray (1906-1992) was a Math/Physics major at Vassar who graduated Phi Beta Kappa in 1928. She stayed at Vassar to teach, and became Grace Murray Hopper in 1930, after marrying Vincent Hopper. With the help of a Vassar College Fellowship, she went to Yale for graduate school, earning her Ph.D. in 1934. She remained at Vassar until 1943, inspiring many students including Winifred Asprey '38, who brought computers to Vassar and founded the computer science program here. Grace Hopper's legacy lives on at Vassar College's computer science department. While a faculty member here, she built a house on campus, which is currently inhabited by her student, Winifred Asprey '38. While her many achievments are remarkable, she is best known in Computer Science as the inventor of the compiler. Dr. Hopper is perhaps most notorious for coining the term, "bug," to describe a problem with a computer, based on her discovery of a moth in a relay panel. Here are some photos of Grace we have compiled.
(Note: some of the images are large, but it will be time well spent!)
