question: Word Ways: The Journal of Recreational Linguistics is a quarterly magazine on recreational linguistics and logology, who is the statistician at Bell Labs, became editor until 2006, Nokia Bell Labs (formerly named AT&T Bell Laboratories, Bell Telephone Laboratories and Bell Labs) is an American research and scientific development company, owned by Finnish company Nokia?
answer: A. Ross Eckler, Jr.
context: Title: Bell Labs Record
  Passage: Bell Labs Record was a publication of the Bell System for many decades beginning in the early 1900s.  This house organ included descriptions of technologies created at many Bell System locations for basic research, devices, technologies, systems, and operations research relevant to telephone company, manufacturing, and government applications.  The public relations department distributed the Record to all Bell System employees.  It was slimmer and less scholarly than "Bell Labs Technical Journal".  On January 1, 1984 the magazine was transferred to AT&T Technologies and subsequently to Lucent Technologies.
  Title: Bell Labs
  Passage: Nokia Bell Labs (formerly named AT&T Bell Laboratories, Bell Telephone Laboratories and Bell Labs) is an American research and scientific development company, owned by Finnish company Nokia.  Its headquarters are located in Murray Hill, New Jersey, in addition to other laboratories around the rest of the United States and in other countries.
  Title: Krishan Sabnani
  Passage: Krishan Sabnani (born 1954 in New Delhi) is an Indian-American networking researcher and Research VP responsible for research on NFV and web communications at Alcatel-Lucent Bell Labs in New Jersey.  He also manages internal awards such as Bell Labs Fellow.  He was Vice President of Networking Research at Bell Labs from Jan. 2000 to Sept. 2013.  In that role, he managed all networking research in Bell Labs, comprising nine departments in seven countries: USA, France, Germany, Ireland, India, Belgium, and South Korea.
  Title: Unix System Laboratories
  Passage: Unix System Laboratories (USL) was originally organized as part of Bell Labs in 1989.  USL joined with the UNIX Software Operation, also a Bell Laboratories division, in 1990.  It assumed responsibility for Unix development and licensing activities.  It then became a separate wholly owned subsidiary, formed, owned, and operated by AT&T Corporation, the parent company of Bell Labs.  Its CEO was Roel Pieper.
  Title: KornShell
  Passage: KornShell (ksh) is a Unix shell which was developed by David Korn at Bell Labs in the early 1980s and announced at USENIX on July 14, 1983.  The initial development was based on Bourne shell source code.  Other early contributors were Bell Labs developers Mike Veach and Pat Sullivan, who wrote the Emacs and vi-style line editing modes' code, respectively.  KornShell is backward-compatible with the Bourne shell and includes many features of the C shell, inspired by the requests of Bell Labs users.
  Title: Inferno (operating system)
  Passage: Inferno is a distributed operating system started at Bell Labs, but is now developed and maintained by Vita Nuova Holdings as free software.  Inferno was based on the experience gained with Plan 9 from Bell Labs, and the further research of Bell Labs into operating systems, languages, on-the-fly compilers, graphics, security, networking and portability.  The name of the operating system and many of its associated programs, as well as that of the current company, were inspired by Dante Alighieri's "Divine Comedy".
  Title: Word Ways
  Passage: Word Ways: The Journal of Recreational Linguistics is a quarterly magazine on recreational linguistics and logology.  It was established by Dmitri Borgmann in 1968 at the behest of Martin Gardner.  Howard Bergerson took over as editor-in-chief for 1969, but stepped down when Greenwood Periodicals dropped the publication.  A. Ross Eckler, Jr., a statistician at Bell Labs, became editor until 2006 when he was succeeded by Jeremiah Farrell (Butler University).
  Title: Bell Laboratories Layered Space-Time
  Passage: Bell Laboratories Layer Space-Time (BLAST) is a transceiver architecture for offering spatial multiplexing over multiple-antenna wireless communication systems.  Such systems have multiple antennas at both the transmitter and the receiver in an effort to exploit the many different paths between the two in a highly-scattering wireless environment.  BLAST was developed by Gerard Foschini at Lucent Technologies' Bell Laboratories (now Alcatel-Lucent Bell Labs).  By careful allocation of the data to be transmitted to the transmitting antennas, multiple data streams can be transmitted simultaneously within a single frequency band — the data capacity of the system then grows directly in line with the number of antennas (subject to certain assumptions).  This represents a significant advance on current, single-antenna systems.
  Title: Jessie MacWilliams
  Passage: Florence Jessie MacWilliams (4 January 1917 – 27 May 1990) was an English mathematician who contributed to the field of coding theory.  She was born in Stoke-on-Trent, England and studied at the University of Cambridge, receiving her BA in 1938 and her MA in the following year.  She moved to the United States in 1939 and studied at Johns Hopkins University.  One year later she left Johns Hopkins for Harvard University.  In 1955 she became a programmer and learned coding theory at Bell Labs where she spent most of her career.  Although she did major research at Bell Labs, she was denied a promotion to a mathematics research position until she received a Ph.D.  She would proceed to fulfill some of the PhD's requirements while working at Bell Labs and taking care of her family, but she completed her PhD after returning to Harvard for one more year (1961–1962), under the supervision of Andrew Gleason.  She and her daughter Anne were both studying mathematics at Harvard that year.
  Title: Bell Labs Technical Journal
  Passage: The Bell Labs Technical Journal is the in-house scientific journal for scientists of Nokia Bell Labs.  It is currently published yearly by the IEEE society on behalf of Nokia Bell Labs.  The journal began publication in 1922 as "The Bell System Technical Journal".  After the restructuring of the Bell Laboratories in 1984, it was renamed to "AT&T Bell Laboratories Technical Journal".  From 1985 to 1996 it was published under the title "AT&T Technical Journal".  The current managing editor is Charlie Bahr.
