William Wesley Peterson (April 22, 1924 – May 6, 2009) was an American mathematician and computer scientist. He was best known for designing the cyclic redundancy check (CRC),[1] Japan Prize in 1999.[2]
Peterson was born on April 22, 1924, in Muskegon, Michigan and earned his Ph.D. in 1954 from the University of Michigan .[2] [3] Information and Computer Sciences at the University of Hawaii at Manoa , joining the faculty in 1964.[4] [4] Error Correcting Codes in 1961. He co-authored a number of books on the topic of error correcting codes , including the revised 2nd edition of Error Correcting Codes [5] Edward J. Weldon ). In the early 1950s, he contributed significantly to the development of signal detection theory through participation in the IRE Professional Group on Information Theory .[6] programming languages ,[7] systems programming , and networks . As well as the Japan Prize in 1999,[2] [8] Claude E. Shannon Award in 1981,[4] IEEE Centennial Medal in 1984.[4] Intel added crc32 to the SSE4.2 instruction set of the x86-64 architecture.[9]
Peterson finished 16th in the 2005 Honolulu Marathon for males ages 80 to 84.[10] Honolulu, Hawaii survived by five children from two different marriages, his wife, and several grandchildren.[3]
