Barry James Mailloux (died May 26, 1982) obtained his M.Sc in Numerical Analysis in 1963. From 1966 he studied at Amsterdam's Mathematisch Centrum under Adriaan van Wijngaarden.
He was one of the editors of the original Report on the Algorithmic Language ALGOL 68 and a contributing editor to the Revised Report on the Algorithmic Language ALGOL 68.
In 1968 he returned to the University of Alberta as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computing Science. His work on ALGOL 68 put the University of Alberta on the map as a center for ALGOL 68-related activity.
Barry's two students Chris Thomson and Colin Broughton established the Chion Corporation, which produced FLACC (Full Language Algol 68 Checkout Compiler).
