Several major computer-related organizations have originated at MIT since the 1980s: Richard Stallman's GNU Project and the subsequent Free Software Foundation were founded in the mid-1980s at the AI Lab ; the MIT Media Lab was founded in 1985 by Nicholas Negroponte and Jerome Wiesner to promote research into novel uses of computer technology ; the World Wide Web Consortium standards organization was founded at the Laboratory for Computer Science in 1994 by Tim Berners-Lee ; the OpenCourseWare project has made course materials for over 2, 000 MIT classes available online free of charge since 2002 ; and the One Laptop per Child initiative to expand computer education and connectivity to children worldwide was launched in 2005.

In 2001, inspired by the open source and open access movements, MIT launched OpenCourseWare to make the lecture notes, problem sets, syllabuses, exams, and lectures from the great majority of its courses available online for no charge, though without any formal accreditation for coursework completed.

MIT OpenCourseWare ( MIT OCW ) is an initiative of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology ( MIT ) to put all of the educational materials from its undergraduate-and graduate-level courses online, partly free and openly available to anyone, anywhere.

MIT OpenCourseWare is a large-scale, web-based publication of MIT course materials.

Currently, MIT OpenCourseWare is supported by MIT, corporate underwriting, major gifts, and donations from site visitors.

The promise of Throop attracted physical chemist Arthur Amos Noyes from MIT to develop the institution and assist in establishing it as a center for science and technology.

MIT retaliated in April 2006, when students posing as the Howe & Ser ( Howitzer ) Moving Company stole the 130-year-old, 1. 7-ton Fleming House cannon and moved it over 3000 miles to their campus in Cambridge, Massachusetts for their 2006 Campus Preview Weekend, repeating a similar prank performed by nearby Harvey Mudd College in 1986.

Core was so expensive that parts of TX-0's memory were stripped for the TX-2, and what remained of the TX-0 was then given to MIT on permanent loan.

At MIT, Olsen and Anderson noticed something odd: students would line up for hours to get a turn to use the stripped-down TX-0, while largely ignoring a faster IBM machine that was also available.

Concerning information processing, DARPA made great progress, initially through its support of the development of time-sharing ( all modern operating systems rely on concepts invented for the Multics system, developed by a cooperation among Bell Labs, General Electric and MIT, which DARPA supported by funding Project MAC at MIT with an initial two-million-dollar grant ).

MIT therapy on average lasts for 1. 5 hours per day for five days per week.

The effect is named for the 1966 chatterbot ELIZA, developed by MIT computer scientist Joseph Weizenbaum.

An early functional-flavored language was Lisp, developed by John McCarthy while at Massachusetts Institute of Technology ( MIT ) for the IBM 700 / 7000 series scientific computers in the late 1950s.

These were general purpose buttons and were often re-purposed for whatever fun idea the MIT hackers had at the time, hence the adoption of foo and bar as general purpose variable names.

It described how the National Intelligence Organization of Turkey ( MIT ) had formed two teams: one which carried out bombings at tourist sites on Crete and other parts of Greece and another which was responsible for starting the wildfires.

In his master's thesis at MIT, for the first time in history, Shannon showed that electronic relays and switches can realize the expressions of Boolean algebra.

* 1986 — Margaret L. A. MacVicar ( Dean for Undergraduate Education, MIT )

This room became the staging grounds for early hackers as MIT students from the Tech Model Railroad Club sneaked inside the EAM room after hours to attempt programming the 30-ton, computer.

He was especially loved by MIT students for his willingness to teach and his kindness: " The trick to education ," he said, " is to teach people in such a way that they don't realize they're learning until it's too late.

At MIT, the Edgerton Center, founded in 1992, is a hands-on laboratory resource for undergraduate and graduate students, and also conducts educational outreach programs for high school students and teachers.

In 1959 he was approached by MIT to design a building for its Earth science program.

The new area was led by Allison Mankin and Scott Bradner, and had a directorate with 15 engineers from diverse backgrounds for direction-setting and preliminary document review: The working-group members were J. Allard ( Microsoft ), Steve Bellovin ( AT & T ), Jim Bound ( Digital Equipment Corporation ), Ross Callon ( Wellfleet ), Brian Carpenter ( CERN ), Dave Clark ( MIT ), John Curran ( NEARNET ), Steve Deering ( Xerox ), Dino Farinacci ( Cisco ), Paul Francis ( NTT ), Eric Fleischmann ( Boeing ), Mark Knopper ( Ameritech ), Greg Minshall ( Novell ), Rob Ullmann ( Lotus ), and Lixia Zhang ( Xerox ).

One specific example are clever pranks traditionally perpetrated by MIT students, with the perpetrator being called hacker.

For example, when MIT students surreptitiously put a fake police car atop the dome on MIT's Building 10, that was a hack in this sense, and the students involved were therefore hackers.

For example a group at MIT concluded that the planet Mesklin in Hal Clement's 1953 novel Mission of Gravity would have had a sharp edge at the equator, and a Florida high-school class calculated that in Larry Niven's 1970 novel Ringworld the topsoil would have slid into the seas in a few thousand years.

For example, when the computers at MIT were protected either by physical locks or login programs, the hackers there systematically worked around them in order to have access to the machines.

Because housing assignments are made based on the preferences of the students themselves, diverse social atmospheres can be sustained in different living groups ; for example, according to the Yale Daily News Staff's The Insider's Guide to the Colleges, 2010, " The split between East Campus and West Campus is a significant characteristic of MIT.

A historical example of graphical user interface and applications common to the MIT X Consortium's distribution running under the twm window manager: Xterm | X Terminal, Xbiff, xload and a graphical man page | manual page browser

For example, in the MIT Exokernel project, the Cheetah web server stores preformatted Internet Protocol packets on the disk, the kernel provides safe access to the disk by preventing unauthorized reading and writing, but how the disk is abstracted is up to the application or the libraries the application uses.

Harvard University and MIT, for example, use A. M. and S. M.

One UK television example is MIT, a spinoff from The Bill on ITV.

Arvind of MIT CSAIL is another example.

After working at AT & T he started a career as visiting lecturer and management consultant for many companies, universities, churches and non-profit organisations, for example at the Harvard Business School, University of Virginia, Massachusetts Institute of Technology ( MIT ) or Ford Foundation.

Academics, for example at MIT Media Lab and NYU, have struggled to find data that show reliably the concentration of media ownership.

( For example, the Grobner algorithm developed in the 1970s at MIT was not installed in a shipping Macsyma until 1987.

For example, in 2010, MIT had two of the top five scorers on the examination and seven of the top 24, while Caltech had just one student in the top five and only four in the top 24 ; yet Caltech took first place among teams while MIT took second.

As an example, a student at MIT may be able to send mail to " joe @ csail " and have it automatically qualified by the mail system to be sent to joe @ csail. mit. edu.

Some participants use it as a means of carrying out collegiate pranks, by hanging banners from high places or, in one notable example from MIT, placing a life-size model police car on top of a university building.

For example, U. S. Senator Richard Shelby ( R-Alabama ) touted the University of Alabama in Huntsville as a possible " MIT of the South.

A review in The Tech ( MIT ) said that the film was a poor example of its genre, and " not worth seeing unless you're really in the mood for this type of movie ".

One example of Biomechatronics is a study done by Hugh Herr, a professor at MIT.
