Moshe is Professor of Operations Research at the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) in Monterey CA, and a Visiting Professor at the Faculty of Industrial Engineering and Management. He teaches and conducts research in defense operations research and related areas. Moshe is the Military and Homeland Security Editor of the OR flagship journal Operations Research. He published four books (one of which has been translated to Hebrew and Korean and another to Chinese) and close to 80 papers in refereed journals. Moshe has been awarded twice the Koopman Prize for military operations research (2005 and 2009) and the 2009 MOR Journal Award. Prior to joining NPS, Moshe was a senior analyst at the Center for Military Analyses in Israel.
