Peter Jay Weinberger (born August 6, 1942) is a computer scientist best known for his early work at Bell Labs. He now works at Google. Weinberger was an undergraduate at Swarthmore College, graduating in 1964. He received his PhD in mathematics in 1969 from the University of California, Berkeley under Derrick Henry Lehmer for a thesis entitled "Proof of a Conjecture of Gauss on Class Number Two".

  • Peter Jay Weinberger ist ein US-amerikanischer Mathematiker und Informatiker. Weinberger erwarb 1969 den akademischen Grad Ph.D. in Mathematik an der University of California, Berkeley. Bekannt wurde er durch seine Arbeit bei AT&T Bell Labs, wo er 1977 zusammen mit Alfred V. Aho und Brian W. Kernighan die Programmiersprache Awk entwarf (das „W“ in AWK steht für Weinberger). Details zu seinen Beiträgen zu AWK und anderen Unix-Werkzeugen siehe Interview von 1989 an der Princeton Universität. Seit 2003 arbeitet er für Google Inc.
  • Peter Jay Weinberger (born August 6, 1942) is a computer scientist best known for his early work at Bell Labs. He now works at Google. Weinberger was an undergraduate at Swarthmore College, graduating in 1964. He received his PhD in mathematics in 1969 from the University of California, Berkeley under Derrick Henry Lehmer for a thesis entitled "Proof of a Conjecture of Gauss on Class Number Two". After holding a position in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, where he continued his work in analytic number theory, he moved to AT&T Bell Labs. At Bell Labs, Weinberger contributed to the design of the pioneering AWK programming language (he is the "W" in AWK). A detailed explanation of his contributions to AWK and other Unix tools is found in an interview transcript at Princeton University. Another interview Laurianne McLaughlin, "From AWK to Google: Peter Weinberger Talks Search," IEEE Security & Privacy, vol. 3, no. 5, September/October 2005, pp. 11-13 sheds some light on his work at Google. Both interviews also confirm rumors about his involvement in early digital photography, especially the abuse of a photograph of his face for demonstrating digital imaging effects. When Peter Weinberger was promoted to head of Computer Science Research at Bell Labs, his picture was merged with the AT&T "death star" logo of the mid-80s, creating the PJW Face image that has appeared in innumerable locations, including t-shirts, coffee mugs, CDs, and at least one water tower. The sole remaining PJW Face at Bell Labs is somewhat in disarray, but there are plans afoot to repair it. Prior to joining Google, Weinberger was chief technology officer at Renaissance Technologies.
  • Peter J. Weinberger (soms afgekort tot PJW) is een Amerikaanse informaticus en wiskundige. Hij werkt bij Google. Weinberger kreeg in 1969 zijn PhD in de wiskunde aan de Universiteit van Californië - Berkeley. Hij werkte voor AT&T Bell Labs. In 1977 ontwikkelde hij samen met Alfred Aho en Brian Kernighan de scripttaal AWK. De naam van deze scripttaal is samengesteld uit de initialen van de achternamen van de drie ontwikkelaars; Weinberger is dus de W in de afkorting AWK.
