just learned from the Stanford Alumni Magazine that Bernard Widrow passed away last September... inventor of the least-mean-square filter, which despite the funny name (it sounds a lot like least squares, minimum residual, etc.) was one of the most important developments in late 20th century adaptive signal processing and digital control. a true pioneer of modern engineering!
