Elbert E. Neher Macau
Elbert E. Neher Macau was born in Três Rios, RJ, Brazil, in 1962. He received the B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from the Aeronautic Technological Institute (ITA) in 1984, 1989, and 2003, respectively. During 1984–1986, he worked as an Auxiliary Professor for ITA, while he was pursuiting his M.S. degree. In 1986, he moved to work for the National Institute for Space Research (INPE), and participated in projects for the Brazilian Space Agency, including the development of the first Brazilian satellites, and also communication and earth-sensor satellites. From 1996 to 1998, he had a postdoctoral position at the University of Maryland Chaos Group, where he worked on synchronization, control of chaos, and communication using chaos. Currently, he is a Full Researcher, working with applications of the dynamical system theory in control of chaos, chaotic synchronization, neural networks, and complex networks. Considering his areas of interest, he published about a hundred of complete papers in international periodicals and congress proceedings.
