Biography

Luenberger was one of the original founders of the Department of Engineering-Economic Systems in 1967. He served as chairman of the department for eleven years. He worked as a professor at the University for 50 years, retiring as of 2015.

He has over 70 technical publications on systems and control, in optimization, in microeconomics, and in financial engineering.[2] His Investment Science is widely prescribed and referenced by finance academics and practitioners.

He received his B.S. in Electrical Engineering from the California Institute of Technology in 1959, and he received his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University in 1963.[3] In his dissertation Luenberger introduced new methods for construction of state observers. The celebrated Luenberger observer and Luenberger type cubic observer [4]are named after him.

gollark: Is it one of those things where they *could*, but the network traffic would be noticeable and people would complain?
gollark: Really? I mean, it has access to all your peripherals, including networking hardware (although only specific things are compatible with the official remote management thing).
gollark: US surveillance law cares slightly less for privacy of foreign citizens than for domestic ones.
gollark: So the domain is easily visible to them.
gollark: You don't even need that; SNIs exist.
