DEC

The article really ought to mention what he did while at DEC. His Turing Award profile gives three paragraphs. 121a0012 (talk) 01:14, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

ForMemRS

does he style himself ForMemRS, or is he just entitled to? because it looks ridiculous in the article. 98.13.244.125 (talk) 21:05, 22 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Scientific Work

Should a sampling of his scientific papers be included? He wrote a few that were prominent such as Lampson, B. W. (1974). Protection. ACM SIGOPS Operating Systems Review, 8(1), 18-24. And he has a few patents Schmidt, E. E., & Lampson, B. W. (1985). U.S. Patent No. 4,558,413. Washington, DC: U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.
