Bimal Kumar Bose (Bengali: বিমল কুমার বসু; born 1932), also known as B. K. Bose, is an electrical engineer, artificial intelligence researcher, scientist, educator, and currently a professor emeritus of power electronics in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.eecs.utk.edu/people/faculty/emeritus/bose/main )〕 == Life and career == Bose was born in Calcutta, India. Bose received his B.E. degree (1956) from Bengal Engineering College under University of Calcutta, (Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology (IIEST)), M.S. degree (1960) from University of Wisconsin, Madison, and Ph.D. degree (1966) from University of Calcutta. Bose started his career in India in 1960 and emigrated to USA in 1971 to join Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY as faculty member (1971-1976), then to GE Corporate Research and Development in Schenectady, NY as research engineer (1976-1987), and then he joined the University of Tennessee as a Chaired Professor (1987-2003). Concurrently, he was the Distinguished Scientist (1989-2000) and the Chief Scientist (1987-1989) of EPRI-Power Electronics Applicationg Center. Bose held the Condra Chair of Excellence in Power Electronics (Endowed Chair Professor) at University of Tennessee, Knoxville. Bose organized its power electronics teaching and research program for 15 years. He is recognized as world-renowned authority and pioneer in power electronics for his many contributions that include advanced control techniques by microcomputers, fuzzy logic and neural networks, transistor ac power switch for matrix converters, adaptive hysteresis-band current control, etc. Bose is an innovator, educator, and mentor to many members of the industry all over the world. He has been a reference for many engineers and scientists working in the area of power electronics and motor drives.〔 Bose has contributed to the global promotion of power electronics by his books, publications, patents, tutorials, invited seminars and keynote speeches around the world. In an article “Eleven Years in Corporate Environment” he writes: “Research ideas do not necessarily come within the 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. work day office. The thoughts linger most of the time beyond the office hours, and often new ideas come when I am taking bath, walking alone in the evening, or even in the midnight when I suddenly wake up with the flash of new idea. There is no difference between scientific research and transcendental meditation.”. Bose is a powerful presence in the world of power electronics. Dr. Bimal Bose received the Honorary Doctor of Science degree from the President of India on January 19, 2013. 〔“In recognition of his outstanding contribution in Engineering and his dedicated service to the nation.”(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.becs.ac.in/component/content/article/37-latest-news/1645-15thconvocationgallery )〕 The IEEE Industrial Electronics Society (IES) established the annual Dr. Bimal Bose Energy systems Award from 2014 which was funded by IES and IEEE Foundation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ieee-ies.org/index.php/about/awards/315-bose-energy-award )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bimal Kumar Bose」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
