George H. Mealy (December 31, 1927 – June 21, 2010 in Scituate, Massachusetts)[1] was an American mathematician and computer scientist who invented the namesake Mealy machine, a type of finite state transducer. He was also a pioneer of modular programming,[2][3] one of the lead designers of the IPL-V programming language,[4] and an early advocate of macro processors in assembly language programming.[5]
Mealy went to Harvard University, where he was active in radio as business manager for WHRB.[6] He graduated in 1951 with an A.B., and at that time began working for Bell Laboratories.[7] He later taught at Harvard.[8]
