The family moved to From 1965 to 1968, Sutherland was an associate professor of electrical engineering at From 1968 to 1974, Sutherland was a professor at the From 1974 to 1978 he was the Fletcher Jones Professor of Computer Science at Designers have used computers for calculations since their invention. In 1968, with the help of his student Bob Sproull, he created the first virtual reality and augmented reality head-mounted display system, named The Sword of Damocles. Sutherland was a Fellow and Vice President at Sun Microsystems.
From 1965 to 1968, Sutherland was an Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering at Harvard University.
Dr. Ivan E. Sutherland became active in Computer Graphics over 20 years ago. Digital computers were used in power system analysis or optimization as early as proto-"Whirlwind" in 1949. His father, a Ph.D. in Civil Engineering, and his mother, a teacher, led Sutherland to appreciate learning. From 1974 to 1978 he was the Fletcher Jones Professor of Computer Science at California Institute of Technology, where he was the founding head of that school’s Computer Science department.

The child of a civil engineer father, he found it very exciting to discover how things worked. [2] His early work in computer graphics as well as his teaching with David C. Evans in that subject at the University of Utah in the 1970s was pioneering in the field. Ivan Sutherland was born in 1938 in Hastings, Nebraska. Sutherland and Marly Roncken are leading the research in Asynchronous Systems at Portland State University. On May 28, 2006, Ivan Sutherland married Marly Roncken.
Work with student Danny Cohen in 1967 led to the development of the Cohen–Sutherland computer graphics line clipping algorithm. Ivan Sutherland and his wife and research partner - Marly Roncken, a research professor in the MCECS Computer Science department - examine an image of a circuit. Ivan’s elder brother, Bert Sutherland, is also a prominent computer science researcher.
The company has done pioneering work in the field of real-time hardware, accelerated 3D computer graphics, and printer languages. Ivan Edward Sutherland (born May 16, 1938) [1] is an American computer scientist and Internet pioneer, widely regarded as the "father of computer graphics".
Ivan Sutherland : biography May 16, 1938 – Sutherland replaced J. C. R. Licklider as the head of the US Defense Department Advanced Research Project Agency’s Information Processing Techniques Office (IPTO), when Licklider returned to MIT in 1964.
Ivan Sutherland was born in Hartings, Nebraska in 1938.
In 1968 he co-founded Evans and Sutherland with his friend and colleague David C. Evans. 1983 Coons – Ivan Sutherland. Former employees of Evans and Sutherland included the future founders of Adobe (John Warnock) and Silicon Graphics (Jim Clark).
He has two children, Juliet and Dean, and four grandchildren, Belle, Robert, William and Rose.
Circuit design theory or power network methodology was algebraic, symbolic, and often vector-based. Sutherland replaced J. C. R. Licklider as the head of the US Defense Department Advanced Research Project Agency’s Information Processing Techniques Office (IPTO), when Licklider returned to MIT in 1964.
At the time, that was a very rare skill, especially among high school students. Sutherland was immersed in learning since he was young. (top photo) A 1962 photo of Ivan Southerland running the Sketchpad at the console of the TX-2 computer.
Among his students there were Alan Kay, inventor of the Smalltalk language, Henri Gouraud who devised the Gouraud shading technique, Frank Crow, who went on to develop antialiasing methods, and Edwin Catmull, computer graphics scientist, co-founder of Pixar and now President of Walt Disney and Pixar Animation Studios.
Sutherland was a visiting scholar in the Computer Science Division at University of California, Berkeley (Fall 2005–Spring 2008).
