Xiaolian Zheng is a PhD candidate finishing her PhD program in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, National University of Singapore. Her research interest is in financial market modeling. Professor Ben M. Chen received his B.S. degree in mathematics and computer science from Xiamen University, Xiamen, China, in 1983, M.S. degree in electrical engineering from Gonzaga University, Spokane, Washington, USA, in 1988, and Ph.D. degree in electrical and computer engineering from Washington State University, Pullman, Washington, USA, in 1991. He was a software engineer in South-China Computer Corporation, Guangzhou, China, from 1983 to 1986, and was an assistant professor from 1992 to 1993 in the Department of Electrical Engineering, State University of New York at Stony Brook, USA. Since August 1993, he has been with the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, National University of Singapore, where he is currently a professor. His current research interests are in robust control, systems theory, unmanned aerial systems, and financial market modeling. He is the author/co-author of 8 research monographs including Loop Transfer Recovery: Analysis and Design (Springer, 1993); H2 Optimal Control (Prentice Hall, 1995); Robust and H∞ Control (Springer, 2000, Chinese edition is to be published by Science Press, Beijing, 2010); Linear Systems Theory: A Structural Decomposition Approach (Birkhauser, 2004; Chinese translation published by Tsinghua University Press, 2008); Hard Disk Drive Servo Systems (Springer, 1st Edn., 2002; 2nd Edn., 2006); and Unmanned Rotorcraft Systems (Springer, 2010). He served/serves on the editorial boards for a number of international journals including IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, Automatica, Systems and Control Letters, and Journal of Control Theory and Applications. Dr Chen is a Fellow of IEEE. He was the recipient of Best Poster Paper Award, 2nd Asian Control Conference, Seoul, Korea(1997); University Researcher Award, National University of Singapore (2000); Prestigious Engineering Achievement Award, Institution of Engineers, Singapore (2001); Temasek Young Investigator Award, Defence Science & Technology Agency, Singapore (2003); Best Industrial Control Application Prize, 5th Asian Control Conference, Melbourne, Australia (2004); and Best Application Paper Award, 7th Asian Control Conference, Hong Kong (2009).
