Ralph Gomory is recognized among Jewish contributors to Technology & Engineering — Invented the cutting-plane method of integer programming; von Neumann Theory Prize (1984)
Ralph E. Gomory is an American applied mathematician who founded the field of integer programming by devising the first general cutting-plane algorithms, and later led IBM Research as its Director of Research and headed the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. He received the von Neumann Theory Prize in 1984. His scientific and executive career is well documented, but public biographies do not state a religious or ethnic identity, so no Jewish identity is asserted here.
