  Landon Curt Noll - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Landon Curt Noll is the discoverer of two Mersenne primes, which he found while still enrolled in high school and concurrently at Cal State Hayward.
He was also a member of the Amdahl Six team which discovered another record prime in 1989; this prime remains unusual as a record large prime as it was not a Mersenne prime.
Noll is an avid amateur astronomer, and was involved in politics as a Sunnyvale, California city councilmember and vice-mayor.

Landon Curt Noll is the discoverer of two Mersenne primes.
The 25th and 26th Mersenne primes were found by Laura Nickel and Landon Curt Noll at age 18.
Noll gave them extensive factoring tables, suggestions on how to perform a fast modulus has well as his prediction that the next Mersenne island was likely to be near the Mersenne island centered near M

 Fowler Noll Vo hash - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fowler/Noll/Vo is a non-cryptographic message digest function created by Glenn Fowler, Landon Curt Noll, and Phong Vo.
These offset bases are computed by running FNV-0 on the string "chongo Curt Noll> /\../\", which is Noll's signature line.
Noll says on his webpage that "The theory behind which primes make good FNV_prime's is beyond the scope of this web page." One notable feature of FNV primes is that when represented as hexadecimal, they are found to bear this appearance:

The 25th and 26th Mersenne primes were found by high-school students Laura Nickel and Landon Curt Noll, who, though they had little understanding of the mathematics involved, used Lucas' simple test on the local university's mainframe (CSUH's CDC 174) to find the next two primes.
Noll searched later, and though he never found another Mersenne prime, he is one of a team that holds the record for the largest non-Mersenne prime.

All in all, Noll estimates that a third of his volunteer campaign organization was recruited directly from the Internet.
(Noll won nearly 50 percent of the vote in a three-way race for an at-large seat.) Prior to the election, the candidate personally walked all of Sunnyvale's precincts; more than a quarter of the city's 120,000 residents met Noll face to face.
ne of Noll's earliest triumphs on the council was the unanimous passage in January of a measure to establish for Sunnyvale a "single Internet domain to receive and send E-mail." The importance of such a move became increasingly apparent to Noll as he discussed his city's telecommunications future with his constituents online and offline.

Landon Noll and Chuck Simmons solved Erdös' problem by solving a more general problem of q1!
But neither in the original version of the Erdös question, nor in the Noll and Simmons generalization, has been produced an example for K=10 such products, weakening the Erdös conjecture.

Called Lavarand, the random-number generator is the tongue-in-cheek work of Robert G. Mende Jr., Landon Curt Noll, and Sanjeev Sisodiya of Silicon Graphics in Mountain View, Calif.
Random numbers are an immensely valuable commodity, not only for the operation of computer-based slot machines but also for computer simulations and for generating the secret strings of digits required to encode and decode sensitive information in cryptographic systems.
Noll and his colleagues decided that the unpredictably wandering globs in a Lava Lite lamp, operated according to the manufacturer’s instructions, are a more convenient source of randomness than, say, the sporadic decays of a radioactive element.
