个人简介
Lawrence D. Stone is a recipient of the Frederick W. Lanchester and Jacinto Steinhardt Prizes. In 1964, Stone received his bachelors from Antioch College in Ohio. He pursued graduate level mathematics at Purdue University, earning his PhD in the subject under Glen Earl Baxter in 1967. After completing his studies, Stone joined Daniel H. Wagner, Associates, working on pertinent projects for the United States Navy and Coast Guard.
During the 1968 search for the remains of the submarine Scorpion, Dr. Stone provided on-scene analysis assistance for six weeks near the Azores. In 1974, he rendered on-scene assistance to the Navy in a search for unexplored ordnance in the Suez Canal. His early contributions to search theory came together in 1975’sTheory of Optimal Search. The book was awarded that year’s Frederick W. Lanchester Prize for best publication in operations research and secured Stone’s reputation as a leading search theorist. In 1979, he served as co-director of the NATO Advance Research Institute on Search Theory and Applications in Portugal and co-editor of the resulting proceedings. In addition to his research and application, Stone has taught search theory courses part-time at the Naval Postgraduate School.
After eighteen years at Daniel H. Wagner Associates, Stone joined Metron Inc. In 1986, he helped the Columbus America Discovery Group find the missing S.S. Central America, a mid-nineteenth century cargo vessel that had sunk over one and a half miles below the ocean’s surface. Stone’s application of search theory with Metron has continued into the twenty-first century. He led the company’s efforts to provide search planning advice for the successful recovery of underwater wreckage from the 2009 Air France Flight 447 mid-Atlantic crash. Stone was Metron’s Chief Operating Officer starting in 1990 prior to becoming Chief Executive Officer in 2004.
In 2007, Stone was awarded the Jacinto Steinhardt Prize of the Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences for his career contributions to military OR. In addition to his work with the Coast Guard and Navy, he was celebrated for his influential publications on search theory and probability mapping, including Theory of Optimal Search and Bayesian Multiple Target Tracking (Second Edition, 2014).
Stone is currently Chief Scientist at Metron, having stepped down from his duties as CEO in 2010. He continues to work on a number of projects, including the Coast Guard’s Search and Rescue Optimal Planning System. Since 2002, he has been a member of Antioch University’s Board of Governors during which time he has served terms as its Chair and Vice Chair.
