Biography: Gang Tao received his B.S. degree from University of Science and Technology of China in 1982, M.S. degrees and Ph.D. degree from University of Southern California during 1984-1989. For over 25 years, he worked in the areas of adaptive control, with particular interests in adaptive control of systems with multiple inputs and multiple outputs and with nonsmooth nonlinearities and actuator failures, in stability and robustness of adaptive control systems, and in passivity characterizations of dynamic systems. During the recent years he has been working on adaptive control of uncertain systems with uncertain actuator nonlinearities, actuator failures, structural damage, and sensor uncertainties and failures, with applications to aircraft/spacecraft flight control. He published 6 books and over 300 technical papers on the related topics. He is currently an associate editor for Automatica and a subject editor for International Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, for areas of adaptive control. He is a Fellow of IEEE.
