Brief. C.V.

Antonio Sala is, at this moment, full Professor (Catedrático de Universidad) in Universitat Politecnica de Valencia. He was born in Valencia, Spain, in 1968. He received a B.Eng. Honours degree in Combined Engineering in 1990 at Coventry University (UK), a M.Sc Degree in Electrical Engineering in 1993, and his Ph.D. in Control Engineering in 1998 both from UPV (Valencia Technical University, Spain). He was awarded the 2nd Spanish national prize for university graduation in 1993.

He has been teaching in UPV since 1993 at the Systems and Control Engineering Department in a wide range of subjects in the area, such as linear systems theory, multivariable process control and intelligent control, in both undergraduate and Ph.D. courses. He has also lectured in a few specialisation/Ph.D courses in other universities.

He has supervised 12 Ph.D. thesis and around 40 final M.Sc. projects. He has taken part in research and mobility projects funded by local industries, government and European community.

He is member of  IFAC (Int. Federation Automatic Control) Technical Commitee 3.2 (Computational Intelligence in Control). In the past, he has been member of the IFAC Publications committee. He has been vice-head of Department for eight years.

Antonio Sala is serving, or has served in the past, as Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems (TFS), Area Editor of Fuzzy Sets and Systems (FSS), Editor adjunto Revista Iberoamericana de Automatica e Informatica Industrial (RIAI).


Research lines

I have explored many directions (maybe too many) in my researcher's lifetime. Robust control, Linear Matrix Inequalities, LPV a.k.a. Takagi-Sugeno systems, dynamic programming, optimization, robotics ...

Public researcher profiles

I have my scientific production indexed in some databases out there:

The good thing about the above automated profiles is that they are, likely, more up-to-date than my "manual" CV polishing done once every couple of years (or less often) that I used to link on this page... but these things did not exist back in the mid 1990s when I set up this web page. Now, I became lazy given that Google Scholar and Scopus/Orcid are far more diligent than I am. So, do look at my profiles in the above links, thanks.

As of January 2023, Google Scholar reports approx. 5400 cites and H-index of 31.
