15 ABOUT THE AUTHOR Timothy J. Ross is Professor and Regents Lecturer of Civil Engineering at the University of New Mexico. He received his PhD degree in Civil Engineering from Stanford University, his MS from Rice University, and his BS from Washington State University. Professor Ross has held previous positions as Senior Research Structural Engineer, Air Force Weapons Laboratory, from 1978 to 1986; and Vulnerability Engineer, Defense Intelligence Agency, from 1973 to Professor Ross has authored more than 130 publications and has been active in the research and teaching of fuzzy logic since He is the founding Co-Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Intelligent and Fuzzy Systems, the co-editor of Fuzzy Logic and Control: Software and Hardware Applications, and the co-editor of Fuzzy Logic and Probability Applications: Bridging the Gap. His sabbatical leaves in at the University of Calgary, Alberta, Canada, and most recently in at Gonzaga University in Spokane, Washington, have resulted in the education of numerous additional students and faculty in the subject of fuzzy logic as he transferred this technology to both those institutions. Dr Ross continues to be active in applying fuzzy logic in his areas of research: decision support systems, reliability theory, and structural engineering.
