About the editors
John Baillieul holds professorial appointments in two departments at Boston University: he is Professor of Mechanical Engineering and Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering. He is former Chairman of several departments. After receiving the Ph.D. from Harvard University in 1975, he joined the Mathematics Department of Georgetown University. During the academic year 1983-84 he was the Vinton Hayes Visiting Scientist in Robotics at Harvard University, and in 1991 he was visiting scientist in the Department of Electrical Engineering at MIT. He has held positions on the editorial boards of many of the leading journals in the field. He was Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control for six years from 1992 through June of 1998, and from 2006 through 2011 he was Editor-in-Chief of the SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization. He served on the editorial boardof the Proceedings of the IEEE (from 1998-2006. He is a recent recipient of the IEEE Third Millennium Medal for various professional contributions. He was the fortieth President of the Control Systems Society. Professor Baillieul has been a member of the IEEE Publications Services and Products Board (PSPB from 1999 - 2004, 2006), Chair of the PSPB Strategic Planning Committee (2001 - 2002), and Chair of the PSPB Finance Committee (PSPB Treasurer, 2004). He served on the IEEE Board of Directors and as IEEE Vice President of Publication Services and Products during 2007 and 2008. He was General Chair of the combined 48th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control and 28th Chinese Control Conference held in Shanghai in 2009.
Baillieul’s research has dealt with robotics, the control of cyber-physical systems, and mathematical system theory. Most recently, he has also been recognized as a leader in applying information theoretic methods in control. John Baillieul is recipient of the IEEE Control Systems Society Bode Prize in 2011, and he is a Fellow of the IEEE, a Fellow of IFAC, and a Fellow of SIAM.
