Higginson Lecture

The Higginson Lecture is an annual lecture organised by and held at Durham University.[1] The series was set up in recognition of Sir Gordon Higginson. Each year a leading engineer is selected to make a presentation, from their own perspective, on a topical issue in engineering.

Higginson gave the inaugural lecture himself in 1997. He then attended all of the lectures until 2009, 2 years before his death.

gollark: I created a thousand globals or something one time to annoy Lignum and it worked fine.
gollark: I agree on the sanity/scoping thing. I just don't think performance is a good argument.
gollark: The effect of adding a few libraries to _G is not very significant.
