Internet pioneer Jon Postel dies at 55
Jon Postel, the computer pioneer who wielded enormous influence over technical
details of the Internet, died of complications from heart surgery in Los
Angeles on Saturday. Postel was considered by the White House as a crucial
player in the future of the global computer network. Although he was scarcely
known outside computer circles, Postel served as director of the Internet
Assigned Numbers Authority, which matched unique numerical addresses for
computers on the Internet with its millions of web addresses.
