Ada’s Heritage

/*  A round table on Ada Byron, who is considered at the same time ‘the first woman programmer’ and the first programmer tout court for her work on Babbage’s ‘engine’. A group of renowned scholars will discuss her approach to programming, the peculiar programmed machine and programming notations that were involved, as well as her legacy, in relation to both the historical background of formalization and mechanization of thought operations, and the main lines of development of computer programming.*/
