      • Neil D. Jones (22 March 1941 Centralia, Illinois, USA - 27 March 2023, Rungsted, Denmark) was an American computer scientist. He was a Professor Emeritus in computer science at University of Copenhagen.
      His work spanned both programming languages and the theory of computation. Within programming languages he was particularly known for his work on partial evaluation and for pioneering work within both data-flow analysis, control-flow analysis and termination analysis.
      Within the theory of computation, he was among the pioneers of the study of Log-space reductions and P-completeness.
      Neil D. Jones was a Knight of the Order of the Dannebrog (since 1998) and also a member of the Academia Europaea (since 1999). He was a 1998 Fellow of the Association for Computing Machinery for "outstanding contributions to semantics-directed compilation, especially partial evaluation, and to the theory of computation, formal models and their practical realization".
