document: Women in computing history Exciting inventions , innovative technology , human interaction , and intriguing politics fill computing history . However , the recorded history is mainly composed of male achievements and involvements , even though women have played substantial roles . This situation is not unusual . Most science fields are notorious for excluding , undervaluing , or overlooking the accomplishments of their female scientists . As Lee points out , it is up to the historians and others to remedy this imbalance . Steps have been taken towards this goal through publishing biographies on women in technology , and through honoring the pioneers with various awards such as the GHC '97 Pioneering Awards , the WITI Hall of Fame , and the AWC Lovelace Award . A few online sites contain biographies of women in technology . However , even with these resources , many women who have contributed significantly to computer science are still to be discovered
