| | Bill Joy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Bill Joy was the person largely responsible for the authorship of Berkeley UNIX, also known as BSD, from which spring many modern forms of UNIX, including FreeBSD, NetBSD, and OpenBSD. | | | In 1986, Joy was awarded a Grace Murray Hopper Award by the ACM for his work on the Berkeley UNIX Operating System. | | | After growing up in rural Michigan Joy received his B.S. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Michigan and his M.S. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from UC Berkeley. |

| | Bill's most recent work is on the Jini distributed computing technology for networking computer devices using Java, and on the Sun Community Source Licensing (SCSL) model, designed to allow companies to share their intellectual property in source form, to facilitate cooperation with customers, partners, educators and researchers. | | | Bill received a B.S.E.E. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Michigan in 1975, after which he attended graduate school at U.C. Berkeley where he was the principal designer of Berkeley UNIX (BSD) and received a M.S. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. | | | His current research is into new uses of distributed computing enabled using Javaand Jini, new methods of human-computer interaction, new microprocessor and system architectures, and the uses in computing of scientific advances in areas such as complex adaptive systems, quantum computing, and the cognitive sciences. |

| | Sun's Bill Joy and James Gosling Take the Stage |
| | Joy imagined software that combined several systems, so that the software as a whole was more reliable than the parts of which it was made. | | | Joy recounted how, in his Berkeley days, he was very frustrated programming in C or C++, because of the unreliability of the software. | | | The conclusion Joy draws: "For all practical purposes, over the next three decades, the cost of computing and storage will stay as close to nothing as we can imagine." Costs will shift to distribution and management and other non-traditional factors. |

| | If Mr Joy were to have his way, the future of computing would rest on a mere 50,000 lines of computer code that make up his year-old initiative called JXTA (pronounced "Juxta"), which seeks to build standards and infrastructure for peer-to-peer computing. | | | Mr Joy likens it to the TCP/IP stack of software that he added to Unix in 1982 so that computers could connect to the Internet. | | | With his colleague Mike Clary, Mr Joy secretly launched the project in 2000 as a way of organising software developers and establishing standards for peer-to-peer computing. |

| | Manifest Technology: Bill Joy |
| | Joy describes the dream of robotics as developing "intelligent machines that can do our work for us, allowing us lives of leisure, restoring us to Eden," but once an intelligent robot exists, it is only a small step to a robot species, an intelligent robot that can make evolved copies of itself. | | | And the technological basis for the next paradigm shift is in sight: molecular and optical computing. | | | Once you really accept the implications of this exponential rate of growth, as Joy has done, then it becomes clear that what were once thought of as wild science-fiction scenarios will happen, not only in our lifetime, but in the next decades. |

| | Bill Joy, Killjoy? By Robert Wright |
| | Joy seems to be buying into the premise of The Matrix: People come to depend on robotic machines, which slowly assume a kind of autonomy, until finally the machines are calling the shots. | | | Backing up the killer-robot scenario, Joy notes that a brain made of silicon (or some successor material) will someday have more raw computing power than a human brain. | | | In addition to the danger of turning the world into a police state, there is another danger: that it will take a huge catastrophe to draw people's attention to the problem of lethal biological agents—whether the agents are genetically engineered or not, and whether they're released intentionally or not. |

| | During his seven years at Berkeley, Joy and a few other graduate students and staff researchers spearheaded an intensive software development effort that culminated, most famously, in a radically improved version of AT&T's Unix, known simply as Berkeley Unix or, more commonly, as BSD, * for Berkeley Software Distribution. | | | And if those hackers sent their modifications to Berkeley, and they were deemed good enough, they became part of a code base maintained by programmers who wanted nothing more than for their software to be widely used, for as low a cost as possible. | | | Berkeley Unix worked so well that DARPA * chose it to be the preferred "universal computing environment" linking together Arpanet * research nodes, thus setting in place an essential piece of infrastructure for the later growth of the Internet. |
