ACM: A.M. Turing Award: Niklaus Wirth
The Association for Computing Machinery gave Wirth the prestigious Alan M. Turing Award in 1984: For developing a sequence of innovative computer languages, Euler, Algol-W, Modula, Pascal. Pascal has become pedagogically significant and has provided a foundation for future computer language, systems, and architectural research.

Program Development by Stepwise Refinement
By Niklaus Wirth; Communications of the ACM, April 1971. Programming is usually taught by examples. Experience shows that the success of a programming course critically depends on the choice of these examples. Unfortunately, they are too often selected with the prime intent to demonstrate what a computer can do. Instead, a main criterion for selection should be their suitability to exhibit certain widely applicable techniques. [ACM]
