Biography
Hong Wang received the BSc, MEng and PhD degrees from Huainan University of Mining Engineering (AHUST) and Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST) in P R China 1982, 1984 and 1987, respectively. He then worked as a postdoc at Salford, Brunel and Southampton Universities (UK) between 1988 and 1992. He joined UMIST (UK) in 1992 and had been a Professor in April, 2002 before he joined Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (UK) as a lab fellow and chief scientist in controls earlier in 2016.Hong Wang is a fellow of IEE and InstMC, a member of 3 International Federation of Automatic Control Technical Cttee and associate editor for IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology and IEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering. He was associate editor of leading control journal IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, editorial board member for 7 international journals and has served as IPC member and conference chairman for many international conferences. Wang's research are in advanced control design for complex systems with applications in power grid and industrial process control, he originated the work on stochastic distribution control, where the main purpose of control input design is to make the shape of the output probability density functions to follow a targeted function. He is the leading author of three books and has also published over 300 papers in international journals and conferences.
