Home›Pioneers›All PioneersBrowse ByAll PioneersReference and ClassificationDevelopingA Pioneer is a person whose work founded, advanced or is closely identified with a field, language, concept or system this atlas records: a computer scientist, mathematician or engineer whose contribution is part of the historical record of computing. A Pioneer is not a Field, Language, Concept or System: the pioneer is the person, credited by name, with a birth year, nationality and the specific contribution the sources attribute to them, including honestly recorded priority disputes where the record shows more than one claimant.All PioneersConnectionsComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)All PioneersFilter Results1,859
