CHRONICLE: LINUS BENEDICT TORVALDS, THE CREATOR OF THE LINUX OPERATING SYSTEM



Linus was born in Helsinki, Finland, on December 28, 1969. His parents are Anna and Nils Torvalds,3 both journalists. He is the grandson of the statistician Leo Törnqvist and the poet Ole Torvalds, and the great-grandson of the journalist and soldier Toivo Karanko. Torvalds belongs to the Swedish-speaking community in Finland. His parents took their name from Linus Pauling (American, Nobel Prize in Chemistry 1954).
At the end of the 1980s he came into contact with IBM and PC computers and in 1981 he acquired a computer with a model 80386 processor from Intel.
In 1988 he was admitted to the University of Helsinki, where he studied computer science. That same year Professor Andrew S. Tanenbaum brought to light the S.O. Minix for didactic purposes. His academic career was interrupted after his first year of studies when he joined the Nyland Brigade of the Finnish Army in the summer of 1989, selecting the 11-month officer training program to fulfill Finland's compulsory military service. . He earned the rank of second lieutenant, with the role of artillery observer.3
In 1990 he started learning the C programming language at his university.

At the age of 21, with a year of programming experience (in C), I already knew enough about the Minix operating system to borrow some ideas and start a personal project. Based on Design of

the Unix Operating System, published by Maurice J. Bach in 1986, he created an implementation that runs any type of program, but on an IBM / PC compatible computer architecture.


This personal project ended on October 5, 1991 with the announcement6 of the first version of Linux capable of running BASH (Bourne Again Shell) and the compiler known as GCC (GNU Compiler Collection).
In January 1992 the General Public License (GPL) was adopted for Linux. This adds freedom of use to Linux totally opposite to those of proprietary software, allowing its modification, redistribution, copying and unlimited use. This licensing model facilitates what is known as the bazaar development model, which has given unprecedented stability and functionality to this operating system.
In 1997 he received the 1997 Nokia Foundation Award from Nokia and the Lifetime Achievement Award at Uniforum Pictures. That same year he finished higher education (1988- 1997) after a decade as a student and researcher at the University of Helsinki, coordinating the development of the operating system kernel since 1992.
He worked at Transmeta from February 1997 to June 2003. He currently works for the Open Source Development Labs in Beaverton, Oregon. Only 2% of the current Linux code is written by him, but, in addition to his paternity, the management of the core management of the operating system continues to rest in his person.
In 2005, he created Git, a version control software, thinking about the efficiency and reliability of versioning applications when they have a large number of source code files.
Linus Torvalds was named in 2006 as one of the heroes of the revolutionaries of the last 60 years, he currently lives in the United States with his wife and 3 children.
