+| Richard Dimick Jenks |
+| Axiom Developer and Computer Algebra Pioneer |
+| |
+| Richard D. Jenks was born on November 16, 1937 in Dixon, Illinois, |
+| where he grew up. During his childhood he learned to play the organ |
+| and sang in the church choir thereby developing a life-long passion |
+| for music. |
+| |
+| He received his PhD in mathematics from the University of Illinois at |
+| Urbana-Champaign in 1966. The title of his dissertation was |
+| ``Quadratic Differential Systems for Mathematical Models" and was |
+| written under the supervision of Donald Gilles. After completing his |
+| PhD, he was a post-doctoral fellow at Brookhaven National Laboratory |
+| on Long Island. In 1968 he joined IBM Research where he worked until |
+| his retirement in 2002. |
+| |
+| At IBM he was a principal architect of the Scratchpad system, one of |
+| the earliest computer algebra systems(1971). Dick always believed that |
+| natural user interfaces were essential and developed a user-friendly |
+| rule-based system for Scratchpad. Although this rule-based approach |
+| was easy to use, as algorithms for computer algebra became more |
+| complicated, he began to understand that an abstract data type |
+| approach would give sophisticated algorithm development considerably |
+| more leverage. In 1977 he began the Axiom development (originally |
+| called Scratchpad II) with the design of MODLISP, a merger of Lisp |
+| with types (modes). In 1980, with the help of many others, he |
+| completed an initial prototype design based on categories and domains |
+| that were intended to be natural for mathematically sophisticated |
+| users. |
+| |
+| During this period many researchers in computer algebra visited IBM |
+| Research in Yorktown Heights and contributed to the development of the |
+| Axiom system. All this activity made the computer algebra group at IBM |
+| one of the leading centers for research in this area and Dick was |
+| always there to organize the visits and provide a stimulating and |
+| pleasant working environment for everyone. He had a good perspective |
+| on the most important research directions and worked to attract |
+| world-renowned experts to visit and interact with his group. He was an |
+| ideal manager for whom to work, one who always put the project and the |
+| needs of the group members first. It was a joy to work in such a |
+| vibrant and stimulating environment. |
+| |
+| After many years of development, a decision was made to rename |
+| Scratchpad II to Axiom and to release it as a product. Dick and Robert |
+| Sutor were the primary authors of the book Axiom: The Scientific |
+| Computation System. In the foreword of the book, written by David and |
+| Gregory Chudnovsky, it is stated that ``The Scratchpad system took its |
+| time to blossom into the beautiful Axiom product. There is no rival to |
+| this powerful environment in its scope and, most importantly, in its |
+| structure and organization.'' Axiom was recently made available as |
+| free software. See http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/axiom. |
+| |
+| Dick was active in service to the computer algebra community as |
+| well. Here are some highlights. He served as Chair of ACM SIGSAM |
+| (1979-81) and Conference Co-chair (with J. A. van Hulzen) of EUROSAM |
+| '84, a precursor of the ISSAC meetings. Dick also had a long period of |
+| service on the editorial board of the Journal of Symbolic |
+| Computation. At ISSAC '95 in Montreal, Dick was elected to the initial |
+| ISSAC Steering Committee and was elected as the second Chair of the |
+| Committee in 1997. He, along with David Chudnovsky, organized the |
+| highly successful meetings on Computers and Mathematics that were held |
+| at Stanford in 1986 and MIT in 1989. |
+| |
+| Dick had many interests outside of his professional pursuits including |
+| reading, travel, physical fitness, and especially music. Dick was an |
+| accomplished pianist, organist, and vocalist. At one point he was the |
+| organist and choirmaster of the Church of the Holy Communion in |
+| Mahopac, NY. In the 1980s and 1990s, he sang in choral groups under |
+| the direction of Dr. Dennis Keene that performed at Lincoln Center in |
+| New York city. |
+| |
+| Especially important to him was his family: his eldest son Doug and |
+| his wife Patricia, his son Daniel and his wife Mercedes, a daughter |
+| Susan, his brother Albert and his wife Barbara, his sister Diane |
+| Alabaster and her husband Harold, his grandchildren Douglas, Valerie, |
+| Ryan, and Daniel Richard, and step-granddaughter Danielle. His |
+| longtime companion, Barbara Gatje, shared his love for music, |
+| traveling, Point O'Woods, and life in general. |
+| |
+| On December 30, 2003, Dick Jenks died at the age of 66, after an |
+| extended and courageous battle with multiple system |
+| atrophy. Personally, Dick was warm, generous, and outgoing with many |
+| friends. He will be missed for his technical accomplishments, his |
+| artist talents, and most of all for his positive, gentle, charming |
+| spirit. |
+| |
+| Prepared by Bob Caviness, Barry Trager, and Patrizia Gianni with |
+| contributions from Barbara Gatje, James H. Griesmer, Tony Hearn, |
+| Manuel Bronstein, and Erich Kaltofen. |
