In Memoriam
Some reached for the stars. Others had two feet on
the ground. They were pioneers, inventors, rocket scientists, authors,
scholars and entrepreneurs. You might not know their names, but you know
their products, their companies and their legacies.
In 2014, the tech industry lost many of its most-cherished members — including two of Computerworld's own: our revered founder Patrick McGovern and beloved news editor Mike Bucken, both of whom are deeply missed. Here we look at 23 women and men who left a lasting impact on how we live and work.
