Vannevar Bush  

Définition(s)

  • U.S. Scientist 1890–1974 Vannevar Bush, creator of the Differential Analyzer, facilitator of the Manhattan Project, and developer of the National Science Foundation, is best known today for his prophetic anticipation of hypertext in a 1945 Atlantic Monthly article entitled “As We May Think.” Bush began his work in engineering with his 1913 master's thesis from Tufts College that culminated in the development of a Profile Tracer, a machine designed to measure distance over uneven terrain. After receiving his Ph.D. in electrical engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 1916, Bush briefly worked as an assistant professor at Tufts before returning to MIT as an associate professor of electrical engineering in 1919.
