معرفی
Andrea Cristofaro is an Associate Professor at the Department of Computer, Control and Management Engineering, Sapienza University of Rome. He holds an M.Sc. in Mathematics (2005) from Sapienza University of Rome and a Ph.D. in Information Science and Complex Systems (2010) from the University of Camerino. His academic trajectory includes postdoctoral positions at INRIA Rhône-Alpes (France) and the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, followed by faculty appointments at the University of Camerino and University of Oslo before joining Sapienza in 2019.
His research spans:
- Robotic systems: Fault-tolerant control, multi-agent coordination, and hybrid dynamics
- Distributed parameter systems: Stability analysis, observer design, and optimal control of PDEs
- Hybrid systems: Control synthesis for systems with state-driven jumps and switching logic
Recent publications (2024-2025) predominantly explore fault-tolerant control architectures for multi-robot systems, decentralized task allocation, adaptive observer designs for biological and thermal systems, and optimal control of reaction-diffusion equations. This reflects a consistent focus on robustness in complex dynamical systems with applications ranging from industrial robotics to biomedical engineering.
He serves as Associate Editor for Automatica and IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology, and is a member of the IEEE CSS Conference Editorial Board.
