ASU Directory Profile
Applications of control, optimization, and system identification theory to semiconductor manufacturing, chemical process control, and prediction and control of epileptic seizures
Konstantinos Tsakalis joined the ASU faculty in 1988 and is currently a professor. He received his MS in chemical engineering in 1984, an MS in electrical engineering in 1985, and a PhD in electrical engineering in 1988, all from the University of Southern California. He holds nine patents and has published one book, 50 journal and 103 conference papers.
