Charles Rosen (scientist)

Charles Rosen (scientist)

Charles Rosen (1917 – December 6, 2002) was a pioneer in artificial intelligence and founder of SRI International's Artificial Intelligence Center.[1] He led the project that led to the development of Shakey the Robot, "who" now resides in a glass case at the Computer History Museum, in Mountain View, California.

Raised in Montreal, Rosen became a student at Cooper Union and received his bachelor's degree in electrical engineering in 1940; he returned to Montreal to study at McGill University, where he received his M. Eng. (in communications) in 1950. While working at the General Electric Research Laboratory, in 1953 Rosen co-authored one of the first textbooks on transistor circuits.[2] In 1956, Rosen received a Ph.D. in electrical engineering from Syracuse University (with a minor in solid state physics).[3]

In 1957, Rosen joined the Stanford Research Institute, where he did much of his artificial intelligence work.

In 1959, Rosen co-founded Ridge Vineyards with fellow computer scientist Hewitt Crane. Under Rosen's ownership, Ridge would go on to place fifth in the Judgment of Paris wine tasting.[4]
