Sami Erol Gelenbe (born 22 August 1945) is a French and Turkish computer scientist, electronic engineer and applied mathematician who is professor in Computer-Communications at Imperial College. Known for pioneering the field of modelling and performance evaluation of computer systems and networks throughout Europe, he invented the random neural network and the eponymous G-networks. His many awards include the ACM SIGMETRICS Life-Time Achievement Award, and the in Memoriam Dennis Gabor Award of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. ==Biography== Gelenbe was born in Istanbul in 1945, to Yusuf Ali Gelenbe, a descendant of the 18th-century Ottoman mathematician Gelenbevi Ismail Efendi, and to Maria Sacchet Gelenbe from Cesiomaggiore, Belluno, Italy. As his father's job was in Ankara, Gelenbe moved there for his studies. He graduated from Ankara Koleji in 1962 and from the Middle East Technical University in 1966, winning the K.K. Clarke Research Award for work on "partial flux switching magnetic memory systems".〔(Erol Gelenbe's Carrier and Contributions, by Ufuk Caglayan )〕 Awarded a Fulbright Fellowship, he continued his studies at Polytechnic University, where he completed a master's degree and a PhD thesis on "Stochastic automata with structural restrictions", under the supervision of Edward J. Smith.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Biographicon: Erol Gelenbe )〕 After graduation he joined the University of Michigan as an assistant professor. In 1972, and then on leave from Michigan, he founded the ''Modeling and Performance Evaluation of Computer Systems'' research group at INRIA (France), and was a visiting lecturer at the University of Paris 13 University. In 1971 he was elected to the second chair in Computer Science at the University of Liège, where he joined Professor Danny Ribbens in 1973, while remaining a research director at INRIA. In 1973, he was awarded a Doctorat d'État ès Sciences Mathématiques from the Paris VI University with a thesis on "Modèlisation des systèmes informatiques", under Jacques-Louis Lions. He remained a close friend of Professor Ribbens and of the University of Liège, and in 1979, he moved to the Paris-Sud 11 University, where he co-founded the Laboratoire de Recherche en Informatique and its PhD Program, before joining Paris Descartes University in 1986 to found the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Informatique. Gelenbe became New Jersey State Endowed Professor at the New Jersey Institute of Technology from 1991 to 1993, and from 1993 and 1998 he was chaired professor and head of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Duke University. From 1998 to 2003 at the University of Central Florida, he founded the Department (School) of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and developed the Harris Corporation Engineering Centre 〔.〕 In 2003, Gelenbe joined Imperial College London as Dennis Gabor Professor in Computer and Communication Networks and Head of Intelligent Systems and Networks. 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「Erol Gelenbe」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
