We noticed the absence of oral histories that capture accounts from early pioneers of computing describing their work as entrepreneurs, researchers, educators, IT journalists, and legislators. First, taking Australia as an example, searching relevant sources yields very little available material (Table 1). This is surprising, for instance, Australia was an early innovator with Trevor Pearcey and Maston Beard building one of the first half dozen of computers in the world in Sydney [1], the first computer to play music [2]. Likewise, the first UNIX port happened Down Under [3] and WiFi came out of CSIRO and Radiata. The situation is similar in New Zealand, where there are only limited resources available, namely two small collections in the National Library of New Zealand, recorded for the 25th and 50th anniversaries of the New Zealand Computer Society, respectively (Table 1).","PeriodicalId":55033,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Annals of the History of Computing","volume":"92 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2023-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138541764","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Group continues the work of the Software History Center, founded by Burton Grad and Luanne Johnson. The Group has been responsible for conducting nearly 150 oral histories and bringing important materials into the Museum's collections. The signature accomplishment of the Group has been its historical workshops, convening small groups (20 or fewer) of key participants in some facet of the history of the software industry to recount their personal experiences, and to exchange their views about the history of their field. These workshops are audio or video recorded, with the transcripts (and sometimes the recordings) made freely and publicly accessible by the Museum on the Web. Importantly, these meetings have served as the bedrock for the creation of many special issues of this journal.","PeriodicalId":55033,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Annals of the History of Computing","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2023-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138541758","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These initiatives center around online and networking capabilities, predominantly arising from the installation, in 1965, of the first time-sharing computer in Australia. This far-sighted, if risky, purchase set the university on a course that led to many more initiatives, encompassing significant computer resource sharing, a ground-breaking online library system, early online education programs, and an early multihost packet-switched network. Most research concerning isolation and innovation suggests that isolation operates as a break on innovation, but the Western Australian experience belies that conclusion.","PeriodicalId":55033,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Annals of the History of Computing","volume":"64 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2023-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138541762","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Oceania includes Australia, Federated States of Micronesia, Fiji, Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Nauru, New Zealand, Palau, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu [5]. The region comprises indigenous Polynesian, Melanesian, and Micronesian cultures alongside more recent colonial influences. There is notable cultural and linguistic diversity throughout, for example, in Vanuatu alone, more than 100 different languages are spoken [11]. The inhabitants of Oceania have a strong connection with the Pacific Ocean, though many of the countries in the region are tiny island states, their exclusive economic zones include large expanses of ocean territory and associated fishing rights [16]. While Pacific Islanders regard themselves as guardians of their ocean territory, rising sea levels caused by climate change pose a serious threat, especially to the lower lying islands. In terms of global geography, Oceania is often regarded as peripheral, its countries have small populations and economies that are often heavily dependent on raw materials. This peripheral location and the region's colonial heritage influenced attitudes toward the arrival of computing technology.","PeriodicalId":55033,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Annals of the History of Computing","volume":"52 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2023-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138541763","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The museum now spans six levels of the stairwell in Building 303S on the University's City campus, available during weekday working hours. It mainly covers modern computing, starting in the late 1950s, with a focus on New Zealand. Apart from papers and books retained by the University, part of Bob's large collection of old documents has been donated to the library at MOTAT, Auckland's Museum of Transport and Technology, forming the Robert W.

Like many medical students, I was glad to have anatomy as the first block of medical school. But my reasons were different: Always a bit squeamish, I figured it was better to discover if I was not cut out for medicine early on—before I was in too deep. Over seven weeks, we systematically dissected our assigned cadaver, dutifully following each blade stroke as spelled out in Grant's Dissector. We started with the heart. The face, covered by a damp cloth during the earlier stages of dissection, was saved for the last day. The ostensible reason for this concealment was utilitarian: To prevent the face from desiccating. But I suspect its more significant function, if not aim, was that of depersonalization.","PeriodicalId":55033,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Annals of the History of Computing","volume":"94 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2023-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138541776","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With its relatively small size and population, New Zealand accepts new technology rapidly. In late 1977, personal computers finally became available to the public and to schools. The opportunity for the Government to provide schools with clear guidance on purchasing and use of computers, both for teaching purposes and for students to learn to use computers was delayed by a lack of focus and understanding for several years. Two New Zealand academics recognized this opportunity and produced two computers in 1981 designed for education, the Poly series of computers and the Aamber Pegasus. This article examines their place in New Zealand history and in the context of other country's approaches to computers in education, particularly in the years 1977 to 1983. A brief discussion follows of New Zealand designed computer peripherals for the visually impaired that contributed significant technology for this community.","PeriodicalId":55033,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Annals of the History of Computing","volume":"1 1","pages":"39-52"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"62454599","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
