Jeffrey Scott Vitter (born 1955 in New Orleans, Louisiana) is a professor of computer science and engineering at Texas A&M University. From 2008 to 2009, he was the provost and executive vice president for academics at Texas A&M University. He previously served from 2002 to 2008 as the Frederick L. Hovde Dean of Science at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana. From 1993 to 2002, he held a distinguished professorship at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina as the Gilbert, Louis, and Edward Lehrman Professor, where he also served as department chair in computer science. He rose through the ranks to professor at Brown University from 1980 to 1993. He received a bachelor's degree with highest honors in mathematics in 1977 from the University of Notre Dame, a Ph.D. in Computer Science in 1980 from Stanford University under the supervision of Donald Knuth, and an MBA in 2002 from Duke University.
Vitter is a computer scientist with over 280 book, journal, and conference publications, primarily on the design and mathematical analysis of algorithms dealing with massive data. His Google Scholar h-index is 55. He helped establish the field of external memory algorithms (a.k.a. I/O algorithms and massive data algorithmics) as a rigorous area of active investigation. He has made fundamental contributions in
compressed data structures and indexing,
hashing and search data structures,
sampling and random variate generation,
prediction and machine learning, and
He is a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellow (1986), a Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) (1993), a Fellow of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) (1996), a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) (2009), a National Science Foundation Presidential Young Investigator Awardee (1985), a member of Phi Beta Kappa (1977) and Sigma Xi (1983), and a Fulbright Scholar (1998). He was on the board of the Computing Research Association from 2000 to 2009, where he continues as co-chair of its Government Affairs Committee. From 1997 to 2001, he was chair of the ACM Special Interest Group on Algorithms and Computation Theory (ACM SIGACT).
Vitter and his wife Sharon have three children, Jillian, J. Scott Jr., and Audrey. He is a brother of U.S. Senator David Vitter (R-LA).
