Abdesselam Bouzerdoum

Abdesselam Bouzerdoum is a Professor of computer engineering and an Associate Dean for Research at the Faculty of Informatics, University of Wollongong, Australia. He received the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees, both in electrical engineering from the University of Washington, Seattle, Wash, USA. In 1991, he joined Adelaide University as a Research Associate, and became a faculty member in June 1992. In 1998, he joined Edith Cowan University, WA, Australia, as an Associate Professor. In 2004, he was appointed Professor of computer engineering and Head of School of Electrical, Computer, and Telecommunications Engineering at the University of Wollongong, New South Wales, Australia. He held several Visiting Professor appointments at Institut Galilée, University of Paris-13, Villetauneuse, France, in 2004, 2005, and 2007, and at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in 2007. He has published over 200 technical articles and graduated fifteen Ph.D. degrees and six research M.S. students. Professor Bouzerdoum has received several fellowships and distinguished awards, amongst them are the Vice Chancellor’s Distinguished Researcher Award in 1998 and 1999, Awards for Excellence in Research Leadership and Excellence in Postgraduate Supervision, and the Chester Sall Award for best paper in IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics in 2004. In 2001, he was awarded a Distinguished Researcher (Chercheur de Haut Niveau) Fellowship from the French Ministry of Research. He served as the Chair of the IEEE WA Section Signal Processing Chapter in 2004, and was the Chair of the IEEE SA Section NN RIG from 1995 to 1997. Between 1999 and 2006, he served as an Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics. Currently, he is serving as an Associate Editor of International Journal of Computational Intelligence and Applications and a Member of the Governing Board of the Asia Pacific Neural Network Assembly.
