About this ebook

Lawrence "Larry" Page born on March 26; 1973 is an American computer scientist and Internet entrepreneur who co-founded Google Inc. with Sergey Brin; and is the CEO of Google's parent company; Alphabet Inc. After stepping aside as CEO in August 2001 in favour of Eric Schmidt; Page re-assumed the role in April 2011. He announced his intention to step aside a second time in July 2015 to become CEO of Alphabet; under which Google's assets would be reorganized. Under Page; Alphabet is seeking to deliver major advancements in a variety of industries. Page is the inventor of PageRank; Google's best-known search ranking algorithm. After enrolling in a computer science PhD program at Stanford University; Page was in search of a dissertation theme and considered exploring the mathematical properties of the World Wide Web; understanding its link structure as a huge graph—his supervisor; Terry Winograd; encouraged him to pursue the idea; and Page recalled in 2008 that it was the best advice he had ever received. Page also believed that the faster Google’s search engine returned answers; the more it would be used. He fretted over milliseconds and pushed his engineers—from those who developed algorithms to those who built data centers—to think about lag times. He also pushed for keeping Google’s home page famously sparse in its design because it would help the search results load faster.
