  Alfred Aho - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Before moving to Columbia he was Vice President of the Computing Sciences Research Center at Bell Labs, where he is still a consultant.
He is most famous for his creation of the AWK programming language with Brian Kernighan and Peter J. Weinberger (the 'A' stands for "Aho"), and his co-authorship of Compilers: Principles, Techniques and Tools (the "Dragon book") with Ravi Sethi and Jeffrey Ullman.
Aho has received many prestigious honors, including the IEEE's John von Neumann Medal and membership in both the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the National Academy of Engineering.

 Leading Computer Scientist Joins Columbia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Alfred V. Aho, a leading computer science theoretician and former researcher at ATandT Bell Laboratories and Bellcore, has been appointed professor and chairman of the department of computer science at Columbia.
Aho notes that telecommunications companies now have an investment in software approaching $100 billion, and that a major challenge for computer scientists now is to create effective interfaces that will allow new software modules to be easily plugged into existing systems.
Aho also believes that every educated person should be aware of the basic concepts of computer science, which, he points out, include logic, the organization of information and the utilization of knowledge.

Awk - A Pattern Scanning and Processing Language (Second Edition) Alfred V. Aho Brian W. Kernighan Peter J. Weinberger ABSTRACT Awk is a programming language whose basic operation is to search a set of files for pat- terns, and to perform specified actions upon lines or fields of lines which contain instances of those patterns.
Awk patterns may include arbitrary boolean combinations of regular expressions and of rela- tional operators on strings, numbers, fields, variables, and array elements.
In all cases the input was a file containing 10,000 lines as created by the command ls -l; each line has the form -rw-rw-rw- 1 ava 123 Oct 15 17:05 xxx The total length of this input is 452,960 characters.
