A. Vitae.
Alan H. Bond was born in England and received the B.A. in physics in 1961 and the M.A. degree in 1966 from Magdalen College, Oxford University. He received the Ph.D. degree in theoretical physics in 1966 from Imperial College of Science and Technology, University of London. From 1966 to 1969, he was on the faculty of the Computer Science Department at Carnegie-Mellon University, Pittsburgh. During the period 1969 to 1984, he was on the faculty of the Computer Science Department at Queen Mary College, London University, where he founded and directed the Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Laboratory. He emigrated to the United States in 1984, and from 1985 to 1991 lead a research team in the Computer Science Department at University of California, Los Angeles, in applications of artificial intelligence in design, manufacturing and management. He became a U.S. citizen in 1989. During 1992, he held the Sony Sabbatical Chair at the Sony Computer Science Laboratory in Tokyo. He was Member of Technical Staff at The Aerospace Corporation, El Segundo, California from 1991 to 1994. Since 1996, he has been a Senior Scientist with the Department of Electrical Engineering at California Institute of Technology. His research interests include distributed artificial intelligence, logic programming, parallel computer architectures, and the application of artificial intelligence to practical problems.
