Frances Elizabeth "Fran" Allen was born August 4, 1932. She is an American computer scientist and a pioneer in the field of optimizing compilers. His achievements include work on compilers, code optimization, and parallel computing. He also played an important role in the creation of programming languages ​​and security codes for the American National Security Agency.

In the 80s, he formed Parallel Translation (PTRAN), one of
the best research groups for the analysis of parallelism. He worked on the oretical basis of automatic parallelization, which allows programs to simultaneously use several processors to obtain faster results. His work has contributed to the advances of high performance computers to solve problems such as weather prediction, DNA sequencing, and national security functions.

Allen started in the research section of IBM to teach
"FORTRAN" to other researchers. "At that time, FORTRAN was a
revolutionary breakthrough in computing," says Allen. Allen is also a member of the IEEE and the Computer Systems Association (ACM)
