Timeline
In 2001, Thompson retired from Carnegie Mellon University at the age of seventy-eight. In 2003, a conference was held to honor Thompson's 80th birthday. At this conference, William W. Cooper gave an address on Thompson's work and impact on operations research; Cooper's address was published in the festschrift for Thompson.
In 1959, Thompson joined the faculty of the Graduate School of Industrial Administration at the Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. At Carnegie Mellon University, Thompson became the IBM Professor of Systems and Operations Research and a Senior Researcher at the Innovation, Creativity, and Capital Institute. He developed new methods for mathematical and computational modeling and expanded the use of mathematics in management science and economics. His research encompassed mathematical programming, combinatorial optimization, production planning, large scale linear and network programming, computational economics, market games, optimal control theory, scheduling theory and practice, and management.
From 1958 to 1959, Thompson taught at Ohio Wesleyan University in Delaware, Ohio.
From 1953 to 1958, Thompson taught at Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire, where he wrote Introduction to Finite Mathematics with John G. Kemeny and J. Laurie Snell. Introduction to Finite Mathematics was "the first book which introduced mathematics into the study of management and business problems", according to Thompson's Carnegie-Mellon colleague, Professor Egon Balas. "Kemeny-Snell-Thompson" became a standard textbook in management science.
From 1943 to 1946, Thompson served in the Navy as an ensign on the USS Harwood (DD-861), which was stationed in the Pacific. By correspondence he obtained a Bachelor of Science degree from Iowa State University in 1944. After the war he attended Massachusetts Institute of Technology, graduating with Master of Science in 1948. He then took up further graduate study at University of Michigan, obtaining the Ph.D. in 1953 under the supervision of Robert M. Thrall.
Gerald L. Thompson (born November 25, 1923, Rolfe, Iowa; died November 9, 2009 Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) was the IBM Professor of Systems and Operations Research (Emeritus) in the Tepper School of Business of Carnegie Mellon University.
