Academic CS/Mathematics papers that influenced Datomic, Clojure, and people of cognitect

[Brendan van der Es]

Hi all,

Thinking back on a few talks by Rich and Stu, there have been some
references to "required readings" of CS papers when starting Datomic and
age old computer science concepts that have been given new life in an
engineering context by Datomic and Clojure. I was hoping we could get all
these references into one thread. Any input from people at cognitect on
these academic papers that have influenced Datomic, Clojure, and/or their
philosophy on computer science/engineering is much appreciated.

I'd love to see these too

Some time ago, Rich Hickey published a list of books that influenced
Clojure:

Some of these likely also influenced Datomic.
