	Diff - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		McIlroy's work was preceded and influenced by Steve Johnson's comparison program on GECOS and Mike Lesk's proof program.
		The potential usefulness of a diff tool provoked McIlroy into researching and designing a more robust tool that could be used in a variety of tasks but perform well in the processing and space limitations of the PDP-11's hardware.
		McIlroy considered writing a post-processor for diff where a variety of output formats could be designed and implemented, but he found it more frugal and simpler to have diff be responsible for generating the syntax and reverse-order input accepted by the ed command.

	Software componentry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		When a component is to be accessed or shared across execution contexts or network links, some form of serialization (also known as marshalling) is employed to turn the component or one of its interfaces into a bitstream.
		Image from Douglas McIlroy's historic lecture on software components at the NATO conference in Garmisch, Germany.
		The idea that software should be componentized - built from prefabricated components - was first published in Douglas McIlroy's address at the NATO conference on software engineering in Garmisch, Germany, 1968 titled Mass Produced Software Components.

		For example, instead of holding doubt, doubts, doubted and doubting, they hold just doubt and use a set of rules to remove suffixes before looking words up; given doubting, the checker would remove the ing and look up the doubt.
