Biography

Krstić was born on 14 September 1964 in Pirot, Serbia (then part of SFR Yugoslavia).[2] He received a BSc degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Belgrade in 1989 and a MSc in 1992.[3] He completed his PhD at the University of California, Santa Barbara in 1994.[3]

Krstić taught as a Professor in the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Maryland from 1995 to 1997.[3] He began his career at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) as Associate Professor in 1997.[3] Since 2006 he has been the director of the Center for Control Systems and Dynamics and since 2012 he has served as Senior Associate Vice-Chancellor for Research at UCSD.[3] In 2015 he was promoted to the rank of Distinguished Professor.[2]

Work

Krstić has made significant contributions to adaptive control, nonlinear control, stochastic systems, extremum seeking, and boundary control of partial differential equations.[2] His control designs have had impact in several processes, including oil drilling, nuclear fusion, and semiconductor manufacturing.[1]

In 2015, Krstić's colleagues published a monograph on the latest innovations in nonlinear delay systems, as a tribute to his research.[4]

Krstić is a co-author of more than 15 books and 400 journal papers.[2]

He is among the most highly cited researchers in the field of control systems according to Scopus and Google Scholar, with an h-index well over 100.[2][5][6] His 1995 research monograph Nonlinear and Adaptive Control Design is one of the two most cited in the field of control theory.[7]

Krstić is Editor-in-Chief of Systems & Control Letters and has been senior editor in the leading journals in control theory, Automatica and IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control.[8]
