The Father of Linear Programming and the Inventor of the "Simplex Method" "Dantzig's paper originally written in 1947 but not published until 1951 was a fundamental application of computers to problems of management and economics. Dantzig was one of three founders together with John von Neumann and Leonid Kantorovich of linear programming a mathematical method used for the optimum allocation of scarce resources among competing activities. In 1947 Dantzig discovered that many such allocation problems could be formulated as linear computer problems. He also devised an algorithm known as the simplex method which allowed these programs to be performed on a large scale and applied to real-world problems. An algorithm of tremendous power the simplex method remains a major part of most operations research applications." Hook Norman & Williams. <br /><br /> "In Washington . . . he became a mathematical advisor at the Defense Department charged with mechanizing the planning process. Based partly on his earlier work with aircraft supply flow he worked out the simplex algorithm." Washington Post.

Writing of the 1970s Abraham Pais remarked of his last decade as a research physicist "I wrote some of these papers by myself quite a few others with collaborators . . . some were my junior research associates at the Rockefeller University. All of them have later obtained senior positions elsewhere some of high distinction. . . Howard Georgi has at this time just completed his term as chairman at Harvard's physics department."

In 1955 Oreste Piccioni was a staff member at Brookhaven National Laboratory. This paper reports on a collaboration between Pais and Piccioni that dealt with "bizarre manifestations of the mixing of Ko and Ko" specifically the fate of a freshly created Ko-beam. Their result was "a regeneration of K1 . . . manifested by the reappearance of the decay K1 2p. This prediction which has become known as the Pais-Piccioni effect was verified a few years later. . . Feyman has called these predictions 'one of the greatest achievements of theoretical physics. It is not based on an elegant hocus-pocus . . . yet the predictions are just as important as say the prediction of the positron.' It is certainly the best physics I have done in my whole life."

"In the summer of 1947 on board ship returning from Copenhagen to New York I had been pacing the deck reflecting on Powell's discovery of the muon and speculating about the possibility that just as the muon appeared to be a heavy brother of the electron there might well exist heavy partners of the proton and neutron - which had not yet been seen at that time. Now here was the ! That particle I was immediately convinced had to be related to the proton-neutron very much like the muon to the electron. These visions were a consequence of my work done in 1946-47 in Copenhagen in which each 'prewar particle' appeared as the lowest mass particle of a 'particle family'. . . I had been the co-creator of the word 'lepton' to denote a member of the electron-neutrino family. In 1953 I proposed to baptize the proton-neutron and its heavier brothers the was only the first of these to be discovered. . . with the collective name 'baryon' from the Greek ßa - heavy. That word like lepton is now in the Oxford English Dictionary where even the paper is quoted in which I first introduced the term." Pais A tale of two continents p. 268. Pais Inward bound p. 514.

"I conclude this recital of my early collaborators in Princeton with the most important on of all: Res Jost whom I had met earlier in Copenhagen. Our deep friendship . . . began in 1949 after he had arrived at the Institute for a stay that would last until 1955. During that period we published two joint papers which I DO NOT HESITATE TO CALL FUNDAMENTAL. In the first of these dealing with the quantum theory of scattering processes we elaborated a method first proposed by Max Born in 1946. Having concluded the work we searched the literature for earlier contributions to our main result. We did not find anything until we came to Born's original paper where our problem was raised - but answered incorrectly." Pais A tale of two continents p. 253.
