Tutorials

The role of the tutorials is to provide a platform for a more intensive scientific exchange amongst researchers interested in a particular topic and as a meeting point for the community. Tutorials complement the depth-oriented technical sessions by providing participants with broad overviews of emerging fields. A tutorial can be scheduled for 1.5 or 3 hours.

Tutorial proposals are accepted until:

May 26, 2020


If you wish to propose a new Tutorial please kindly fill out and submit this Expression of Interest form.

Brief Bio
David Bensoussan (S’80-M’81-SM’83) was born in Mogador, Morocco, November 14, 1947. He received his B.Sc. degree in electrical engineering from the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa, Israel, in 1970 and M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees from McGill University, Montréal, P.Q., Canada, in 1978 and 1982, respectively. He has been a professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering at the École de technologie supérieure, University of Québec since 1980. He has published extensively in the field of control, telecommunications and energy and has filed a large number of patents. He is the author of a series of technical books in control and communications published by Bordas-Dunod-Gauthier Villars, France, Academic Press, Presses Internationales Polytechnique and Presses de l’Université du Québec. https://scholar.google.com/citations?authuser=1&user=xqgn_9wAAAAJ
Abstract

New results allowing fast and robust control (1) have recently been extended to the multivariable case. They have been applied with success to a levitation system and to the control of drones. These results can be easily implemented though a graphical geometric method allowing the design and the optimization of feedback controllers.  The simplicity of use circumvents the sophisticated analytical methods while keeping excellent performance both in the time domain and the frequency domain. They can also be applied to improve L1 adaptive control method.
