Ken Thompson received the Turing Award in 1983 together with Ritchie for their contributions to operating system theory and practice.
The C language was developed by Dennis Ritchie at Bell Labs and was originally created to rewrite the Unix operating system.
In 1969, Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie wrote the first version of Unix in assembly language on a PDP-7, and in 1973 rewrote the Unix kernel in C.
In 1978, Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie co-authored The C Programming Language (K&R), which became one of the most influential works in the history of programming.
The Unix philosophy was established by Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie in the 1970s; its core principle is 'do one thing and do it well,' with programs combined through a pipe mechanism.
