FAQs

Who shared the 1992 ACM Software System Award with Daniel G. Bobrow?

Five others: Richard R. Burton; L. Peter Deutsch; Ronald M. Kaplan; Larry Masinter; and Warren Teitelman.

The 1992 ACM Software System Award was given for Interlisp. The award list names six people for it: Daniel G. Bobrow, Richard R. Burton, L. Peter Deutsch, Ronald M. Kaplan, Larry Masinter and Warren Teitelman. Bobrow therefore shared the recognition with five colleagues rather than receiving it alone.
