Author Information

Morton John Canty, now semi-retired, was a senior research scientist in the Institute for Bio- and Geosciences at the Jülich Research Center in Germany. He received his PhD in Nuclear Physics in 1969 at the University of Manitoba, Canada and, after post-doctoral positions in Bonn, Groningen and Marburg, began work in Jülich in 1979. There, his principal interests have been the development of statistical and game-theoretical models for the verification of international treaties and the use of remote sensing data for monitoring global treaty compliance. He has served on numerous advisory bodies to the German Federal Government and to the International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna and was a coordinator within the European Network of Excellence on Global Monitoring for Security and Stability, funded by the European Commission. Morton Canty is the author of three monographs in the German language: on the subject of non-linear dynamics (Chaos und Systeme, Vieweg, 1995), neural networks for classification of remote sensing data (Fernerkundung mit neuronalen Netzen, Expert, 1999), and algorithmic game theory (Konfliktlösungen mit Mathematica, Springer 2000). The latter text has appeared in a revised English version (Resolving Conflicts with Mathematica, Academic Press, 2003). He is co-author of a monograph on mathematical methods for treaty verification (Compliance Quantified, Cambridge University Press, 1996). He has published many papers on the subjects of experimental nuclear physics, nuclear safeguards, applied game theory, and remote sensing and has lectured on nonlinear dynamical growth models and remote sensing digital image analysis at Universities in Bonn, Berlin, Freiberg/Saxony, and Rome.
