  6. May 24, 2004 · Robert Floyd was among the most brilliant computer scientists of his generation, the early careers of which took shape in parallel with the discipline itself. In this elegant tribute and memoir, Floyd's longtime colleague Donald E. Knuth draws upon many of his original documents and letters to explore Floyd's remarkably diverse contributions to computer science. This article is an edited ...

  7. In The Language of Machines, Robert Floyd and Richard Beigel revolutionize the teaching of computability and languages. They propose nothing less than redefinition of the building blocks of automata theory: their unified model of computation clarifies the subject as never before. Floyd and Beigel's single model encompasses all the traditional ...
