Why Is Eugene Lawler Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Eugene Leighton Lawler was an American computer scientist and a professor of computer science at the University of California, Berkeley. Academic life Lawler came to Harvard as a graduate student in 1954, after a three-year undergraduate B.S. program in mathematics at Florida State University. He received a master's degree in 1957, and took a hiatus in his studies, during which he briefly went to law school and worked in the U.S. Army, at a grinding wheel company, and as an electrical engineer at Sylvania from 1959 to 1961. He returned to Harvard in 1958, and completed his Ph.D. in applied mathematics in 1962 under the supervision of Anthony G. Oettinger with a dissertation entitled Some Aspects of Discrete Mathematical Programming. He then became a faculty member at the University of Michigan until 1971, when he moved to Berkeley. He retired in 1994, shortly before his death.
