"Pioneering and fundamental contributions to software science"
From the early 1960s, at the beginning of the shift to large-scale, large-capacity computers, Professor Hoare presented Hoare's Logic on the definition and design of programming languages and a number of other papers on specification, design, implementation and maintenance of programs, applying his axiomatic approach for better computer performance and greater software reliability. He is a computer scientist who has made significant contributions to the development of software science.
