This Festschrift volume, published in honor of Brian Randell on the
occasion of his 75th birthday, contains a total of 37 refereed
contributions. Two biographical papers are followed by the six
invited papers that were presented at the conference 'Dependable
and Historic Computing: The Randell Tales', held during April 7-8,
2011 at Newcastle University, UK. The remaining contributions are
authored by former scientific colleagues of Brian Randell. The
papers focus on the core of Brian Randell's work: the development
of computing science and the study of its history. Moreover, his
wider interests are reflected and so the collection comprises
papers on software engineering, storage fragmentation, computer
architecture, programming languages and dependability. There is
even a paper that echoes Randell's love of maps. After an early
career with English Electric and then with IBM in New York and
California, Brian Randell joined Newcastle University. His main
research has been on dependable computing in all its forms,
especially reliability, safety and security aspects, and he has led
several major European collaborative projects.
