Bjarne Stroustrup (born June 11, 1950 in Aarhus, Denmark) is a computer scientist and the engineering professor of Computer science at Texas A&M University. He is most notable for developing the C_Plus_Plus programming language. Stroustrup, in his own words, "''invented C++, wrote its early definitions, and produced its first implementation... chose and formulated the design criteria for C++, designed all its major facilities, and was responsible for the processing of extension proposals in the C++ standards committee.''" Stroustrup also wrote what many consider to be the standard introductory text to the language, ''C_Plus_Plus'', which is now in its third edition. The text has been revised twice to reflect the evolution of the language and the work of the C++ standards committee. Stroustrup is ''cand. scient.'' (the Danish equivalent to a master's degree) in mathematics and computer science (1975) from the University of Aarhus, Denmark, and Doctor of Philosophy in computer science (1979) from University of Cambridge, England. He formerly worked as the head of Bell Labs's Large-scale Programming Research department, from its creation until late 2002. ==Awards & accomplishments== *1990 - Named one of "America's twelve top young scientists" by ''Fortune (magazine)''. *1993 - ACM (Association for Computing Machinery) Grace Murray Hopper Award for early work on C++. *1995 - ''Byte magazine'' named Stroustrup one of the 20 most influential people in the computer industry. *1996 - Stroustrup was named an AT&T Fellow: "For fundamental contributions to the development of computer languages and object-oriented programming, culminating in the C++ programming language." *1998 - Stroustrup was named ACM Fellow: For his early work laying the foundations for the C++ programming language.
