Antonio Barreiro

Alfonso Baños was born in Córdoba (Spain) in 1965. He is a graduate and doctor in Physics at Universidad Complutense (Madrid) in 1987 and 1991, respectively. His doctoral work was performed at the Instituto de Automatica Industrial (C.S.I.C), in the area of nonlinear control system. In 1992, he joined the Universidad de Murcia where he is currently Full Professor in Systems and Control Engineering. He is also the leading researcher of research group "Computer and Control Engineering", since 1994. He has been visiting several research groups with pre- and postdoctoral stays, in University of Strathclyde at Glasgow, University of Minnesota at Minneapolis, and University of California at Berkeley. He has led numerous research projects at local, national and european level, and also several technological transfer projects with for example Centro Tecnológico de la Conserva, Centro Tecnológico del Metal, and MTorres Ingeniería de Procesos. He has published over 70 works in journals and international conferences and holds 3 patents.

Antonio Barreiro was born in Vigo (Spain) in 1959. He received the degree of Industrial Engineering (in Electronics and Automatic Control) and the PhD in Industrial Engineering from the Polythecnic University of Madrid (UPM) in 1984 and 1989, respectively. From 1984 to 1987 he was with the Department of Applied Mathematics of the UPM. Since 1987 he has been with the Department of Systems Engineering and Automatic Control of the University of Vigo, where he is now Full Professor in Control Engineering. He has taught numerous undergraduate and postgraduate courses on different topics in Automatic Control, and has supervised five PhD theses. He has lead numerous research projects, and has published over 60 papers in journals and conferences. His research interests include nonlinear stability and control, neural networks, fuzzy systems, Kalman filters, Lyapunov techniques, networked control and time-delay systems, with applications in electromechanical systems, robotics, helicopter control, haptic teleoperation and automotive control.
