Ronald (Ron) Linn Rivest,
an American mathematician, computer scientist and cryptographer,
Andrew and Erna Viterbi Professor of Computer Science and Engineering in MIT's Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) and a member of MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL).
Ron Rivest is one of the inventors of the RSA algorithm (with Adi Shamir and Leonard Adleman) [2], and inventor of the symmetric key encryption algorithms RC2, RC4, RC5, co-inventor of RC6, designer of the cryptographic hash functions MD2, MD4 and MD5 message-digest algorithms, co-designer of MD6, and co-author (with Charles Leiserson et al.) of Introduction to Algorithms.
He further researched and published on machine learning and game tree search by Min/Max approximation [3].
