Apologies for the late post, folks.This question will stay open for longer.

Cracked only by Goyal and Vijay Shankar, who got the whole question perfect.

Answer:

All the awards the ACM gives out that are named after people are named after these people :-) To quote Vijay Shankar:

1. Alan Turing
2. Gordon Bell
3. John Mauchly and J. Presper Eckert
4. Grace Hopper
5. Paris Kanellakis
6. Alan Newell

The people missing would be Eugene Lawler and Karl V Karlstrom.

They all have ACM awards named after them.
