FACULTY PROFILE — JOHN HENRY HOLLAND

  Professor of Psychology and Electrical Engineering & Computer Science

 • Ph.D. University of Michigan
   Area: Cognition and Cognitive Neuroscience

 • Contact Information
 • Email: jholland@umich.edu
   Psychology Office: 1271 East Hall
   Psychology Phone: 734-763-3648

 • Research and Teaching Interests
 • Study of cognitive processes and complex adaptive systems in general,
   using mathematical models and computer simulation.
Biography      Where is he from?
• John Henry Holland, (born February 2, 1929, Fort Wayne, Indiana,
  U.S.) and raised in western Ohio.




• The he move to Massachusett and then Michigan
Biography Where           did he go to school?
•    He study at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He then entered
    the graduate school in communication science at the University of
    Michigan in Ann Arbor




• Professor Holland was made a MacArthur fellow in 1992 and is a
  fellow of the World Economic Forum. He serves on the Advisory Board
  on Complexity at the McDonnell Foundation.
Biography       What did he study?
• John Henry Holland study science and Psychology to be Professor
  of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of
  Michigan. He is a pioneer in complex system and nonlinear science. He
  is known as the father of genetic algorithms.
Biography What            did he achieve?
• In 1950 Holland received a bachelor’s degree in mathematics from
  the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
• he University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, where he received his
  doctorate in 1954—arguably the first Ph.D. in computer science.
His Work
• Holland frequently lectures around the world on his own research, and
  on current research and open questions in complex adaptive systems
  (CAS) studies. In 1975 he wrote the ground-breaking book on genetic
  algorithms, "Adaptation in Natural and Artificial Systems". He also
  developed Holland's schema theorem.
The wright books too
• .Holland is the author of a number of books about CAS, including:
   – Adaptation in Natural and Artificial Systems (1975)
   – Hidden Order: How Adaptation Builds Complexity (1995)
   – Emergence: From Chaos to Order (1998)
Some Articles, a selection

   – "A universal computer capable of executing an arbitrary number
     of subprograms simultaneously", in: Proc. Eastern Joint Comp.
     Conf. (1959), pp. 108–112
   – "Iterative circuit computers", in: Proc. Western Joint Comp.
     Conf. (1960), pp. 259–265
   – Concerning the Emergence of Tag-Mediated Lookahead in
     Classifier Systems", in: Stephanie Forrest, editor. Emergent
     Computation: self-organizing, collective, and cooperative
     phenomena in natural and computing networks (1990). MIT Press


• And many more…
At the University of Michigan
• John H. Holland is professor of computer science and engineering and
  professor of psychology at the University of Michigan USA; he is also
  external professor and member of the executive committee of the
  board of trustees at the Santa Fe Institute
CAS
• Professor Holland has been interested
  for more than 40 years in what are
  now called complex adaptive systems
  (CAS). He formulated genetic
  algorithms, classifier systems, and the
  Echo models as tools for studying the
  dynamics of such systems. His books
  Hidden Order (1995) and Emergence
  (1998) summarize many of his
  thoughts about complex adaptive
  systems.
My Thoughts

   • John Henry Holland was a name I remember
     hearing , but i have never thought he was a famous
     Computer Scientist, His work seem really
     interesting although i have never heard of them
     before. I think that what he accomplish in science is
     really useful and perhaps i will use it when i grow
     older in higher grades at school. I might read one of
     his books to learn more about all the amount of
     information in the science of the Computers.
