Edsger Dijkstra was one of the most prolific members of the founding generation of computer scientists. Over the course of a forty+ year career, he published hundreds of technical reports - typing, photocopying, and mailing them to colleagues. Not all of his manuscripts were technical... some were about the future of the discipline and a few read like travel logs. Check out the <a href="http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/EWD/welcome.html">E. W. Dijkstra Manuscript Archive</a>, part of the Center for American History at the University of Texas Austin for access to his manuscripts, or as he called them, "EWDs."<div><br /></div><div>Inspired by Dijkstra, I am going to attempt to be more diligent in capturing my own thoughts on research and other musings as they develop, hopefully inspiring a little healthy discussion along the way. I can only hope to be as prolific as Dijkstra (and as influential). </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5487319749335760085-4370112284939797961?l=macgyverwashere.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>David Woollardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05164074585947133225noreply@blogger.com38
