Donald E.Knuth(唐納德E.克努特,中文名高德納)算法和程序設計技術的先驅者、計算機排版系統(tǒng)TEX和METAFONT的發(fā)明者,他因這些成就以及大量富于創(chuàng)造力和具有深遠影響的著作(19部書,1160篇論文)而譽滿全球.作為斯坦福大學關于計算機程序設計藝術的榮譽退休教授,1目前他正投入全部精力完成關于計算機科學的史詩性的七卷集的工作.這一偉大工程在1962年他還是加州理工學院的研究生時就開始了。Knuth教授獲得了許多獎項和榮譽,包括美國計算機協(xié)會圖靈獎(ACM Turing Award)、美國前總統(tǒng)卡特授予的科學金獎(Medal of Science)、美國數(shù)學學會斯蒂爾獎(AMS Steele Prize)、以及1996年11月由于發(fā)明先進技術而榮獲的極受尊重的京都獎(Kyoto Prize)
