IEEE Computer Society

While Computing Now focuses on hot-topic articles and the latest developments in the technology world, Computing Then is designed to take a step back - to contemplate, explore, celebrate, analyze, and learn from the past. The site draws considerably from articles and documentation of IEEE Annals of the History of Computing, the leading source of scholarship and pioneering accounts in this field. Computing Then presents materials in both traditional (PDFs) and new, multimedia formats (including podcasts). The site will continue to explore new mechanisms and means for producing and distributing a wide variety of content on the history of computing, software, and networking.
