Norbert Wiener (November 26, 1894 – March 16, 1964) was an American scientist, mathematician, and philosopher. He served as a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). He is considered by some to be the father of cybernetics [1]. The results of his work in mathematics, cybernetics, communication theory, computer design, information theory and philosophy are considered to be a foundation for both the modern information age and information and computer ethics [2].
