Synopsis

Millennial Reflections in Computer Science is a comprehensive overview of cutting-edge issues within computing science written by some of the most pre-eminent scientists available today.
To mark the retirement of Sir Tony Hoare from Oxford University, some of the world's leading computer scientists gathered together for a three-day symposium. Organised by the University of Oxford, and sponsored by Microsoft Research, the symposium resulted in this remarkable collection of talks, papers, and essays.
Some describe original research, others offer personal perspectives
on the field. Together, they comprise a unique insight into the past, present, and future of computer science.
