Rick Hayes-Roth

Rick Hayes-Roth (born 1947) is currently a professor in the Information Sciences Department at the United States Navy's Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, California. At NPS he teaches the "capstone" course on strategy and policy in exploiting information technology. Prior to joining the NPS faculty, he was the Chief Technology Officer for Software at Hewlett-Packard. Before that he was Chairman and Chief Executive of two Silicon Valley companies which he co-founded. He was the program director for research in Information Processing at The Rand Corporation and, prior to that, was one of the co-inventors of the first continuous speech understanding systems, Hearsay-II, which became the ubiquitous “blackboard architecture.”

Dr. Hayes-Roth's contributions have helped establish several methods and technologies now widespread in business and government for exploiting machine intelligence. Rule-based systems and expert systems routinely solve important problems and help organizations achieve higher levels of performance. His work on "Valued Information at the Right Time" (VIRT) shows how "smart push" can increase communication efficiency by as much as five orders of magnitude. VIRT is being embraced by the Department of Defense and leading IT organizations such as Oracle.

Dr. Hayes-Roth has written more than 100 published papers and co-authored three other books, "Building Expert Systems", "Pattern-Directed Inference System", and "Radical Simplicity: Transforming Computers into Me-Centric Appliances". Dr. Hayes-Roth also recently published his book, "Hyper-Beings: How Intelligent Organizations Attain Supremacy through Information Superiority".

The term hyper-being was coined during a “Bold Ideas” group meeting chaired by Marv Langston, then Deputy Chief Information Officer of the United States Department of Defense (DoD). Dr. Langston previously directed the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's Information Systems Office, the group responsible for creating radical new possibilities to enhance DoD's performance using superior information technology.

Dr. Hayes-Roth held faculty positions at MIT, Stanford, and Carnegie Mellon, as well as NPS. He is a Fellow of the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence, a Senior Member of the IEEE, and a member of the Association for Computing Machinery.
