Biographical Information

 

Adolfo was born and raised in Madrid, Spain. He received his “Licenciatura” degree in Control and Electronics Engineering from ICAI Engineering School (Pontifical Comillas University of Madrid) in 2002. From August 2002 to September 2005 he worked for three years at EADS-Astrium-Crisa designing electronic equipment for European satellites. At the same time he was a lecturer at ICAI Engineering School teaching Control Systems. In September 2005 he was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship and decided to come to USA to start a new life as a graduate student. Right now, he is a PhD student under the supervision of Paulo Tabuada. His main research interest is self-triggered control. If you don’t know what self-triggered control is, please take a look at the papers below!  Stay tuned for more publications to come.
