JVA company history timeline

1969

It was based on CPL (Combined Programming Language), which had been first condensed into the B programming language—a stripped-down computer programming language—created in 1969–70 by Ken Thompson, an American computer scientist and a colleague of Ritchie.

The language was devised during 1969–73, alongside the early development of the UNIX operating system.

1978

During this time a description of the language became widely available through a book, The C Programming Language (1978), by Brian W. Kernighan and Ritchie.

1991

Java was started as a project called "Oak" by James Gosling in June 1991.

Work on the language began in 1991, and before long the team’s focus changed to a new niche, the World Wide Web.

1994

Descendants of C include Concurrent C, Objective C, C*, C#, and the widely used C++. The programming language Java was introduced in 1994 as a simplified subset of C for deployment over the Internet and for use in portable devices with limited memory or limited processing capabilities.

1997

In 1997, Sun reached out to the ISO/IEC JTC1 and then Ecma International to formalize Java, but they quickly withdrew.

2010

Java operates on more than 3 billion smartphones, according to Oracle (which acquired Sun Microsystems in 2010). In this article, we’re going to explore the history of Java and the philosophy behind it.
