HAMMING, Richard Wesley (1915-1998). "Error detecting and error codes." In The Bell System Technical Journal 29 (1950): 147-60. 4 o. Black buckram. Hamming was the first coding theorist to attract widespread interest in his work. He received his Ph.D. in mathematics from the University of Illinois in 1942, and after a stint at Los Alamos, where his job was to keep the Manhattan Project's IBM relay computers functioning, he went to work at Bell Telephone Laboratories, joining the recently hired Claude Shannon in the mathematics department (some of Hamming's early coding work is cited in Shannon's "A mathematical theory of communication". In 1947, frustrated when a failure in one of Bell Lab's relay computers had spoiled a run of data, Hamming began developing the first error-correction codes (now known as Hamming codes), which enabled computers to find and correct single errors in a stretch of data, as well as to discover double errors. Error correction has since been developed into a scientific discipline used in everything from extracting data transmitted from space probes, to recovering jammed communications, to guaranteeing high-quality music from a compact disk. From Gutenberg to the Internet 12.3. OOC 646.
