Q.E.P.D.

Dr. Jorge Santos (Q.E.P.D.)

Estimadas y estimados integrantes de la comunidad CLEI:

Por esta vía, comunicamos que el 20 de marzo 2025, en la ciudad de Bahia Blanca, Argentina, falleció el Dr. Jorge Santos, destacado integrante de la comunidad CLEI, padre de nuestro querido past-president Rodrigo Santos. y cuya trayectoria había sido reconocida con la Distinción CLEI al Mérito Latinoamericano en Informática en el año 2017.

El Prof. Jorge Santos, ha sido uno de los pioneros de la informática en la región, en particular en la UNS en Argentina, y también ha colaborado fuertemente durante varios años con la comunidad CLEI. El Profesor Jorge Santos se recibió de Ingeniero Industrial de la Universidad de Buenos Aires en 1951. En 1956 fue designado Profesor en la recientemente creada Universidad Nacional del Sur. En 1959-1960 estudió Diseño Lógico de Computadoras Digitales en la Universidad de Manchester, UK, junto al grupo que había desarrollado la primera computadora de programa almacenado dirigido por el Prof. Kilburn.

Al regreso en Argentina conformó un grupo de estudio en la UNS denominado Seminario de Computadoras que derivó en un ambicioso proyecto para construir la Computadora Electrónica de la Universidad Nacional del Sur (CEUNS). Durante este periodo se publicaron trabajos en revistas de alto impacto y se formaron gran cantidad de Ingenieros en la especialidad bajo su dirección. En 1976, el gobierno de facto lo cesanteó. Durante los siguientes años trabajó en el ámbito privado en una empresa de desarrollo de tecnología digital para el control de transporte vertical. Desarrolló el primer sistema computadorizado de abastecimiento de agua potable en la Argentina para la ciudad de General Pico. Con el regreso de la democracia y luego de acceder nuevamente a un cargo de profesor por concurso público de antecedentes, retomó sus actividades académicas con exclusividad. Formó y dirigió hasta su retiro el Grupo de Investigación en Sistemas de Tiempo Real en el mismo Laboratorio de Sistemas Digitales donde se generó el proyecto CEUNS. Fue Investigador Principal del CONICET dirigiendo tesis de posgrado, e impulsando publicaciones en congresos y revistas internacionales.

El Profesor Santos además dictó numerosos cursos en la Escuela Brasileño Argentina de Informática, en la Escuela de Ciencias Informáticas (ECI-UBA) y en la Escuela de Ciencias Informáticas de la Universidad de Rio Cuarto. Fue Director del Departamento de Electrotecnia de la UNS y del Departamento de Ingeniería Eléctrica de la UNS. Como representante argentino ante el Comité Directivo de CLEI desarrolló una importante labor de integración de nuevas universidades.

Desde el Comité Ejecutivo, y en nombre de todo CLEI, hacemos llegar a Rodrigo y al resto de familiares y amigos, nuestro pesar y condolencia por la pérdida de este extraordinario colega y amigo.
