Prof. Lei Guo has been a Professor of the Institute of Systems Science at the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) since 1992, where he had been Director of the Institute (1999-2002). From 2002 to 2012,he was the President of the Academy of Mathematics and Systems Science, CAS. He is currently the Director of the National Center for Mathematics and Interdisciplinary Sciences, CAS. He was elected Fellow of the IEEE in 1998, Member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2001, Fellow of the Academy of Sciences for the Developing World (TWAS) in 2002, Foreign Member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences in 2007, and Fellow of the International Federation of Automatic Control (IFAC) in 2007 He was awarded the 2019 Hendrik W.Bode Lecture Prize by the IEEE Control Systems Society. He has worked on problems in adaptive control, system identification, adaptive signal processing, and stochastic systems. His current research interests include control of nonlinear uncertain systems, PID control theory, distributed filtering and estimation, capability of feedback, multi-agent systems, game-based control systems, and complex systems, among others.
The Asian Control Association (ACA) is an organization that promotes control science and engineering in Asia consisting of voluntary individuals who are willing to support its activities. It is a successor of the Asian Control Professors Association (ACPA) that was formed in 1996 as an organization of professors in the area of control engineering in Asia and Oceania, which had been a steering body of control communities in the area. Asian Control Conferences were organized with the initiative of ACPA and the Asian Journal of Control was published in the name of ACPA.
