Biography

Erol Gelenbe is the son of Maria Sachet Gelenbe, and of Yusuf Âli Gelenbe. His father was a descendant of the 18th-century Ottoman mathematician Gelenbevi Ismail Efendi and nephew of the Ottoman Sheyhulislam Mehmet Cemaleddin Efendi. Erol graduated from Ankara Koleji and the Middle East Technical University, Ankara, where he won the K.K. Clarke Research Award for his undergraduate thesis on "partial flux switching magnetic memory systems".[9] Awarded a Fulbright Fellowship, he completed a master's degree and PhD thesis degree at the Polytechnic University on "Stochastic automata with structural restrictions" under Prof. Edward J. Smith.[10]

Career

He then joined the University of Michigan as an assistant professor, and on leave from Michigan, he founded the Modeling and Performance Evaluation of Computer Systems research group at INRIA (France), and was a visiting associate professor at the university of Paris 13 University. In 1971 he was elected to a chair in Computer Science at the University of Liège in Belgium, but was appointed in 1974, joining Professor Danny Ribbens while remaining a research director at INRIA. He was awarded a Doctorat d'État ès Sciences Mathématiques (1973) from Sorbonne 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, but moved to the Paris-Sud 11 University in 1979, where he co-founded the Laboratoire de Recherche en Informatique and its PhD Program, before joining Paris Descartes University in 1986 as founding director of the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Informatique.

Gelenbe was appointed New Jersey State Endowed Chair Professor at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (1991-1993). He joined Duke University in 1993 and was appointed to the Nello L. Teer Chair Professorship, and as Chairperson of the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department. In 1998 he moved to the University of Central Florida, and founded the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science,[11] creating the Harris Corporation Engineering Centre[12] In 2003 he was offered the Dennis Gabor Chair at Imperial College London[13][14] as Head of Intelligent Systems and Networks. After Brexit, he was appointed Professor in the Institute of Theoretical and Applied Informatics (IITIS)[15] of the Polish Academy of Sciences in 2017, where he was an Academy Fellow since 2013.[16] He retired from Imperial in 2019, and continues as Professor at the Institute of Theoretical and Applied Informatics of the Polish Academy of Sciences, as Coordinator or Principal Investigator of EU H2020 Research and Innovation Project SerIoT (2017-2021)[17] on the security of the Internet of Things, the EU H2020 Research and Innovation Programmes SDK4ED (2018-2020) and of IoTAC (2020-2023). Active in several National Academies, he Chairs the Informatics Section of Academia Europaea since 2023,[7] served as SAPEA Advisor on Cybersecurity for the EU High Level Group (2017), Member of the Fake-News Study Group of the All-European Academies (ALLEA, 2020–2021),[18] leader of the Science Communication (Diffusion des Sciences) Study Group (2020–21) of the Belgian Royal Academy of Sciences, Arts and Letters, and Study Group leader on "Research to Innovation in Europe" (2022)[19] of the Association of European Academies of Applied Sciences and Engineering.[20]
