作者简介
Oded Goldreich was born on February 4, 1957, in Israel. He received B.A., M.Sc., and D.Sc. degrees in Computer Science at the Technion--Israel Institute of Technology in 1980, 1982 and 1983, respectively. He was a postdoctoral fellow at MIT's Laboratory for Computer Science (1983-1986). Since 1995, he has been on the faculty of the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science of the Weizmann Institute of Science (Israel), where he is the incumbent of the Meyer W. Weisgal Professorial Chair. His current research interests include probabilistic proof systems, property testing, pseudorandomness, and complexity theory at large. Oded has made numerous contributions to the theory of computation, most notablly to the foundations of cryptography, pseudorandomness, probabilistic proof systems, property testing, and complexity theory at large.He is the author of several books, including Foundations of Cryptography: Volumes 1 and 2 (2001 and 2004), Computational Complexity: A Conceptual Perspective (2008), P, NP, and NP-Completeness: The Basics of Complexity Theory (2010), and Introduction to Property Testing (2017).
Oded is an associate editor of the journal Computational Complexity, and was an editor of Journal of Cryptology and SIAM Journal on Computing. He has been an invited speaker at various conferences, including the 1994 International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) and the Crypto '97 conference. He is a Corresponding Fellow of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities, a Fellow of the International Association for Cryptologic Research (IACR), and a winner of the 2017 Donald E. Knuth Prize.
