[edit]I am honored to have a page in Wikipedia, but am wondering if it would be possible for someone to edit my page and make a few additions/updates to it. (I understand it is not appropriate to do so myself.)
The page mentions only one of three impact awards my papers have received:
- The first additional award is described here: SIGPLAN - Awards. To summarize: In 2006, the 1987 original Self paper, coauthored with Randall B. Smith, was selected by a committee formed by the ACM OOPSLA steering committee as one of the three most influential OOPSLA papers presented form 1986 to 1996.
- The second additional award is described here: SIGSOFT Impact Paper Award. To summarize: The 1984 paper, Generation Scavenging: A non-disruptive high performance storage reclamation algorithm. won a Retrospective ACM SIGSOFT Impact Paper Award in 2008.
(I believe that these awards were bestowed after the original page was written.)
The page lists only a few of my 20 patents, and I assume that is the norm for such pages. However, it completely omits my favorite patent: Perceptual-based color selection for text highlighting, with Kristen McIntyre, U.S. #6,842,182. 2005. I would appreciate it if this patent could be included.
The dates on the two publications are incorrect:
- Self: The Power of Simplicity was published in 1987 at OOPSLA.
- Animation: From Cartoons to the User Interface was published in 1993 at UIST.
Finally if possible, it would be great if the page could list three more of my publications:
- The History of Self, David Ungar, Randall B. Smith. ACM HOPL-III, 2007. Proc. of the Third ACM SIGPLAN History of Programming Languages Conference (HOPL-III), B. Ryder, B, Hailpern (Eds.), San Diego, California, USA, 9-10 June 2007. Paper and video at [1].
- Programming as an Experience: The Inspiration for Self, R. Smith & D. Ungar, invited paper, ECOOP’95.
- Reconciling Responsiveness with Performance in Pure Object-Oriented Languages, Urs Hölzle and David Ungar. TOPLAS 18, 4 (July 1996).
Thank you very much,
