N1 - Funding Information: John N. Tsitsiklis (S’80–M’83–SM’97–F’99) received the B.S. degree in mathematics, and the B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering, all from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Cambridge, MA, in 1980, 1981, and 1984, respectively. During the academic year 1983–1984, he was an acting Assistant Professor of electrical engineering at Stanford Uni-versity, Stanford, CA. Since 1984, he has been with the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, MIT, where he is currently a Clarence J. Lebel Professor of Electrical Engineering. He has served as acting co-director of the Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems (Spring 1996 and 1997), and as a co-director of the Operations Research Center (2002–2005). He has also served in the National Council on Research and Technology in Greece (2005–2007). He has been a visitor with the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, University of California at Berkeley, and the Institute for Computer Science, Iraklion, Greece. His research interests are in the fields of systems, optimization, control, and operations research. He has coauthored more than 110 journal papers in these areas. He is also a coinventor in seven awarded U.S. patents. He is a coauthor with D. Bertsekas of Parallel and Distributed Computation: Numerical Methods (Athena Scientific, 1989), with D. Bertsekas Neuro-Dynamic Programming (Athena Scientific, 1996), with D. BertsimasIntroduction to Linear Optimization (Athena Scientific, 1997), and with D. Bertsekas Introduction to Probability (Athena Scientific, 2002). He was a recipient of an IBM Faculty Development Award (1983), an NSF Presidential Young Investigator Award (1986), an Outstanding Paper Award by the IEEE Control Systems Society (1986), the MIT Edgerton Faculty Achievement Award (1989), the Bodossaki Foundation Prize (1995), and the INFORMS Computer Science Technical Section prize (1997). He is a Fellow of INFORMS (2007). In 2007, he was elected to the National Academy of Engineering. In 2008, he was conferred the title of Doctor honoris causa, from the Universite Catholique de Louvain (Belgium). Funding Information: Prof. Gastpar won the 2002 EPFL Best Thesis Award, an NSF CAREER Award in 2004, an Okawa Foundation Research Grant in 2008, and an ERC Starting Grant in 2010. He is an Information Theory Society Distinguished Lecturer (2009–2011). He is currently an Associate Editor for Shannon Theory for the IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON INFORMATION THEORY, and he served as Technical Program Committee Co-Chair for the 2010 International Symposium on Information Theory, Austin, TX.
