Author Comments:
W. M. Kahan is the recipient of several awards, including the 1990 ACM Turing Award and the 1997 SIAM John von Neumann Prize. He is the guiding force behind IEEE 754 floating-point arithmetic, which has been implemented on billions of computer chips, and which has contributed substantially to the much-needed improvement of the floating-point environment on digital computers. His personal Web site at http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/ wkahan/ contains many published and unpublished documents and software. At version 1.15, the year coverage looked like this: 1955 ( 1) 1973 ( 4) 1991 ( 8) 1956 ( 0) 1974 ( 1) 1992 ( 7) 1957 ( 0) 1975 ( 3) 1993 ( 3) 1958 ( 1) 1976 ( 2) 1994 ( 6) 1959 ( 0) 1977 ( 3) 1995 ( 3) 1960 ( 0) 1978 ( 1) 1996 ( 9) 1961 ( 0) 1979 ( 5) 1997 ( 9) 1962 ( 0) 1980 ( 5) 1998 ( 25) 1963 ( 4) 1981 ( 3) 1999 ( 35) 1964 ( 1) 1982 ( 6) 2000 ( 23) 1965 ( 6) 1983 ( 7) 2001 ( 8) 1966 ( 5) 1984 ( 1) 2002 ( 22) 1967 ( 2) 1985 ( 4) 2003 ( 2) 1968 ( 3) 1986 ( 5) 2004 ( 16) 1969 ( 5) 1987 ( 7) 2005 ( 6) 1970 ( 3) 1988 ( 3) 2006 ( 1) 1971 ( 3) 1989 ( 4) 2007 ( 2) 1972 ( 4) 1990 ( 8) Article: 57 Book: 2 InCollection: 4 InProceedings: 18 Manual: 1 MastersThesis: 1 Misc: 124 PhdThesis: 1 Proceedings: 15 TechReport: 39 Unpublished: 33 Total entries: 295 This bibliography has been prepared from the extensive BibNet Project and TeX User Group bibliography archives, from the IEEE Explore database, from the ACM Portal database, from several different university and government library catalogs, and from assorted Web sites and technical articles found by Web searches. BibTeX citation tags are uniformly chosen as name:year:abbrev, where name is the family name of the first author or editor, year is a 4-digit number, and abbrev is a 3-letter condensation of important title words. Citation tags were automatically generated by software developed for the BibNet Project. In this bibliography, entries are sorted first by ascending year, and within each year, alphabetically by author or editor, and then, if necessary, by the 3-letter abbreviation at the end of the BibTeX citation tag, using the bibsort -byyear utility. Cross-referenced proceedings entries appear at the end, because of a restriction in the current BibTeX.
