Dr. Kang K. Yen has been involved in theoretical works on control theory and on parallel simulation algorithms development for real-time applications in the past several years. In the same periods, he has also participated in several industry supported projects on real-time data processing and microprocessor-based control system designs. Currently, he is interested in research and development of intelligent control system design methodology to improve dynamic system's performance and reliability, both theoretical and application oriented problems are being considered. He is a registered professional engineer in the State of Florida.
