Bio: James Lam received a first class BSc degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Manchester in 1983. He was awarded the Ashbury Scholarship, the A.H. Gibson Prize and the H. Wright Baker Prize for his academic performance. From the University of Cambridge, he obtained the MPhil and PhD degrees in control engineering in 1985 and 1988, respectively. His postdoctoral research was carried out in the Australian National University between 1990 and 1992. He is a Scholar and Fellow of the Croucher Foundation. Dr. Lam is now a Professor at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, the University of Hong Kong. Prior to that, he held faculty positions at now the City University of Hong Kong and the University of Melbourne. Professor Lam is a Chartered Mathematician and Chartered Scientist, a Fellow of the Institute of Mathematics and Its Applications, a Senior Member of the IEEE, a Member of the IEE. He is an Associate Editor of the Asian Journal of Control, the International Journal of Systems Science, the Journal of Sound and Vibration, the International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science, the IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing, the Conference Editorial Board of the IEEE Control Systems Society, an editorial member of the IET Control Theory and Applications. He has served as Editor-in-Chief of IEE Proceedings: Control Theory and Applications and the IFAC Technical Committee on Control Design. His research interests include reduced-order modelling, delay systems, descriptor systems, stochastic systems, multidimensional systems, robust control and filtering, fault detection, and reliable
control. He has published numerous research articles in these areas
and co-authored a monograph entitled Robust Control and Filtering of
Singular Systems (Springer: 2006). |
