Alice Recoque, née Arnaud[1] (born Cherchell, Algeria; 1929) is a French computer scientist, computer engineer and computer architecture specialist. She worked on the designs of mini-computers in 1970s and led research focused on Artificial Intelligence.[2][3]
Early life
She was born in 1929 in Chechell, Algeria. She finished École supérieure de physique et de chimie industrielles in 1954 with a title of graduate engineer and started working at Société d'électronique et d'automatisme (SAE)[3].
Career
At SAE she worked on core memories of CAB1101. In 1956 Alice Recoque and Françoise Becquet started designing the mini-computer CAB500 - the first conversational desktop computer[4]. The computer was released in 1960.[5] The CAB500 was a French low cost mini-computer, the purpose of which was to do complex, scientific calculations.
After the merger of SAE and CAE, the Compagnie internationale pour l'informatique (CII) was born in 1966[3]. She continued her work at CII when she worked on designing Mitra computers. The first design, Mitra 15, launched in 1972. Both the Mitra 15 and CAB500 were a commercial success in France.
She led the Bull Group at CII. In 1985 the Bull Group focused on the research on highly parallel machines and artificial intelligence.[2] During that period she helped develop the language KOOL(knowledge representation object-oriented language) with it's implementation in LISP.[6]
She was a speaker at The European Association for microprocessing and microprogramming in August 1975.[7]
Achievements
In 1979 she received the Ordre national du Mérite - Au grade de Chevalier.[8]
In 1985 she was nominated for the Officier de l'ordre national du Mérite[9].
In 2016 she became an honor member of Société informatique de France.[4]
