summary | Mark Priestleys' "Routines of Substitution: John von Neumann's Work on Software Development, 1945-1948" is a technical history focusing on:
1. **Merge Sort Algorithm**: It discusses von Neumann's work on merge sort, highlighting his meshing algorithm.
2. **Diagrammatic Programming Language**: The study also covers von Neumann's diagrammatic programming language, an early form of flowcharts.
3. **Subroutine Integration and Execution**: Priestley emphasizes the practical aspects of software development by examining how von Neumann integrated and executed subroutines within programs.
While the Von Neumann Architecture is his most well-known achievement from this period (as outlined in "First Draft of a Report on the EDVAC"), this study sheds light on the invention process and the practical implementation details of von Neumann's early software development work. |
