Bernard Vauquois (June 14, 1929 — September 30, 1985[1]) was a French mathematician and computer scientist. He was a pioneer of computer science and machine translation (MT) in France. An astronomer-turned-computer scientist, he is known for his work on the programming language ALGOL 60, and later for extensive work on the theoretical and practical problems of MT, of which the eponymous Vauquois triangle is one of the most widely-known contributions.[1]
He was a professor at what would become the Grenoble Alpes University.[1]
