This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Frederick J. Beutler is a mathematician, engineer, and academic. He is a professor emeritus at the University of Michigan.
Beutler's research interests have included information theory, electrical engineering, and applied mathematics, with a focus on stochastic processes, signal processing, optimization of complex systems, and queueing theory. He is a life fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
Early life and education
[edit]Beutler was born on October 3, 1926, in Berlin. He was the first child of physicians Alfred David Beutler and Käthe (Italiener) Beutler. His family emigrated to the United States in 1936. He completed his S.B. and S.M. degrees from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1949 and 1951, respectively. Later in 1957, he earned his Ph.D. from the California Institute of Technology.[1][2]
Career
[edit]From 1951 to 1954, Beutler was a research engineer at the Autonetics Division of North American Aviation (NAA). Subsequently, he worked as a consultant for Ramo-Wooldridge Corp and Lockheed Aircraft until 1957.[1]
At the University of Michigan, Beutler was an assistant professor of Aeronautical Engineering from 1957 to 1959, associate professor of Instrumentation from 1959 to 1963, professor of Instrumentation from 1963 to 1967, and professor of Information and Control Engineering between 1967 and 1990. Later, he chaired the Computer Information and Control Engineering Program for two distinct periods, from 1970 to 1971 and again from 1977 to 1990. In 1984, he was appointed as a professor of Electronics Engineering and Computer Science, and from the following year, he chaired the Electrical Engineering Systems Graduate Program, positions he held until 1990. Since then, he has been a professor emeritus of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, as well as of Information and Control Engineering. He was the managing editor for the SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics from 1968 to 1973.[1][2]
Research
[edit]In his research, Beutler employed Hilbert space approaches and showed that perfect reconstruction is attainable for sampling systems with a variation from equal sample intervals of less than 22%.[3] He also determined generalizations for other sampling patterns.[4] Another body of his work has addressed pseudoinverses, extending them to bounded linear operators on Banach spaces with closed ranges,[5] and has investigated "stationary point random processes".[6]
Personal life
[edit]Beutler married Abigail Elaine Caplan in 1951, and they had three children: Arthur David, Kathryn Ruth, and Michael Ernest Beutler. Following his divorce from Abigail Elaine CaplanIn, he married Suzanne Armstrong Ireland in 1969.[2] Later in his career, he worked as a photographer and exhibited his work at exhibitions, including the Ann Arbor district library.[7]
