The Computing Field: Structure
 |
 |
abstract = {This article examines the development of the computing field. Our account considers the computing field in four stages: infancy (1935--1950), childhood (1950--1970), adolescence (1970--1990), and young adulthood (1990--2010). The computing profession is a product of the fourth stage. The relationships between computing and other fields are vitally important.},
