Maria Domenica Di Benedetto (Fellow, IEEE) received the master’s degree in electrical engineering and computer science from the University of Roma ”La Sapienza”, and the Ph.D. degree (“Docteur-Ingenieur” Spécialité Automatique et Traitement du Signal) and the degree “Doctorat d’Etat ès Sciences” (Spécialité Sciences Physiques) from the Université de Paris-Sud, Orsay, France.
She has been an Adjunct Professor from 1995 to 2002, and a McKay Professor from 1990 to 1995, with the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences (EECS), University of California at Berkeley. She held a visiting positions with MIT, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, USA, and the Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Mécanique, Nantes, France. From 2001 to 2019, she has been the Director of the Italian Center of Excellence for Research DEWS ”Architectures and Design methodologies for Embedded controllers, Wireless interconnect and System-on-Chip” established at the University of L’Aquila in 2001. She was the President of the Italian Association of Researchers in Automatic Control (SIDRA) from 2013 to 2019. Since 2009, she has been the President of the European Embedded Control Institute. She is currently a Professor of Automatic Control with the University of L’Aquila, Italy. Her research interests include nonlinear and hybrid systems control theory, diagnosability and predictability in cyber-physical systems, and applications to traffic control, smart grids, and biological systems.
Dr. Di Benedetto is a fellow of the IFAC. She has been a member of the IEEE Control Systems Technical Fields Award Committee, the IEEE Fellow Evaluation Committee of the IEEE CSS, and the Control Award Committee from 2021 to 2022, and the Chair of the Standing Committee on Fellow Nominations of the IEEE CSS.
