  • Tarjan Transcript Final with Timestamps
    A.M. Turing Award Oral History Interview with Robert (Bob) Endre Tarjan by Roy Levin San Mateo, California July 12, 2017 Levin: My name is Roy Levin. Today is July 12th, 2017, and I’m in San Mateo, California at the home of Robert Tarjan, where I’ll be interviewing him for the ACM Turing Award Winners project. Good afternoon, Bob, and thanks for spending the time to talk to me today. Tarjan: You’re welcome. Levin: I’d like to start by talking about your early technical interests and where they came from. When do you first recall being interested in what we might call technical things? Tarjan: Well, the first thing I would say in that direction is my mom took me to the public library in Pomona, where I grew up, which opened up a huge world to me. I started reading science fiction books and stories. Originally, I wanted to be the first person on Mars, that was what I was thinking, and I got interested in astronomy, started reading a lot of science stuff. I got to junior high school and I had an amazing math teacher. His name was Mr. Wall. I had him two years, in the eighth and ninth grade. He was teaching the New Math to us before there was such a thing as “New Math.” He taught us Peano’s axioms and things like that. It was a wonderful thing for a kid like me who was really excited about science and mathematics and so on. The other thing that happened was I discovered Scientific American in the public library and started reading Martin Gardner’s columns on mathematical games and was completely fascinated.

  • Thriving in a Crowded and Changing World: C++ 2006–2020
    Thriving in a Crowded and Changing World: C++ 2006–2020 BJARNE STROUSTRUP, Morgan Stanley and Columbia University, USA Shepherd: Yannis Smaragdakis, University of Athens, Greece By 2006, C++ had been in widespread industrial use for 20 years. It contained parts that had survived unchanged since introduced into C in the early 1970s as well as features that were novel in the early 2000s. From 2006 to 2020, the C++ developer community grew from about 3 million to about 4.5 million. It was a period where new programming models emerged, hardware architectures evolved, new application domains gained massive importance, and quite a few well-financed and professionally marketed languages fought for dominance. How did C++ ś an older language without serious commercial backing ś manage to thrive in the face of all that? This paper focuses on the major changes to the ISO C++ standard for the 2011, 2014, 2017, and 2020 revisions. The standard library is about 3/4 of the C++20 standard, but this paper’s primary focus is on language features and the programming techniques they support. The paper contains long lists of features documenting the growth of C++. Significant technical points are discussed and illustrated with short code fragments. In addition, it presents some failed proposals and the discussions that led to their failure. It offers a perspective on the bewildering flow of facts and features across the years. The emphasis is on the ideas, people, and processes that shaped the language. Themes include efforts to preserve the essence of C++ through evolutionary changes, to simplify itsuse,to improve support for generic programming, to better support compile-time programming, to extend support for concurrency and parallel programming, and to maintain stable support for decades’ old code.

  • Fault-Tolerant Distributed Computing in Full-Information Networks
    Fault-Tolerant Distributed Computing in Full-Information Networks Shafi Goldwasser∗ Elan Pavlov Vinod Vaikuntanathan∗ CSAIL, MIT MIT CSAIL, MIT Cambridge MA, USA Cambridge MA, USA Cambridge MA, USA December 15, 2006 Abstract In this paper, we use random-selection protocols in the full-information model to solve classical problems in distributed computing. Our main results are the following: • An O(log n)-round randomized Byzantine Agreement (BA) protocol in a synchronous full-information n network tolerating t < 3+ faulty players (for any constant > 0). As such, our protocol is asymp- totically optimal in terms of fault-tolerance. • An O(1)-round randomized BA protocol in a synchronous full-information network tolerating t = n O( (log n)1.58 ) faulty players. • A compiler that converts any randomized protocol Πin designed to tolerate t fail-stop faults, where the n source of randomness of Πin is an SV-source, into a protocol Πout that tolerates min(t, 3 ) Byzantine ∗ faults. If the round-complexity of Πin is r, that of Πout is O(r log n). Central to our results is the development of a new tool, “audited protocols”. Informally “auditing” is a transformation that converts any protocol that assumes built-in broadcast channels into one that achieves a slightly weaker guarantee, without assuming broadcast channels. We regard this as a tool of independent interest, which could potentially find applications in the design of simple and modular randomized distributed algorithms. ∗Supported by NSF grants CNS-0430450 and CCF0514167. 1 1 Introduction The problem of how n players, some of who may be faulty, can make a common random selection in a set, has received much attention.
