Rogelio Lozano has worked in worked at a number of institutions with a high reputation for control engineering - the University of Newcastle in Australia, Nasa's Langley Research Center and now as CNRS Research Director at the University of Compiègne. He is a very experienced author in the control field being an associate editor of both Automatica and International Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing. He is the co-author of 3 previous titles for Springer all of them in the Communications and Control Engineering series: Landau, I.D., Lozano, R. and M'Saad, M.
