Giuseppe FRANZE'

Giuseppe FRANZE' is a Full Professor at the Department of Mechanical, Energy and Management Engineering (DIMEG) of the University of Calabria since 2022. He has over 200 publications in archival journals, book chapters, and conference proceedings, with a focus on constrained predictive control, networked control systems, and resilient control for cyber-physical systems. His research includes theoretical and applied projects funded by MIUR/MUR, European Union, and international institutions.

• IEEE Senior Member (2019)
• Associate Editor for IEEE/CAA Journal of Automatica Sinica
• Guest Editor for Special Issue on Resilient Control in Large-Scale Networked Cyber-Physical Systems
• Organized sessions at CoDIT, ETFA, CASE conferences
• Collaborations with Carnegie Mellon, Concordia University, Georgia Tech, and others

His research spans constrained predictive control, fault-tolerant strategies, obstacle avoidance for autonomous vehicles, and machine learning integration in control systems. Recent articles emphasize resilient control under network attacks, encrypted MPC, and reinforcement learning for multi-agent systems. He received Best Paper and Best Reviewer awards at international conferences.

• Best Paper - CoDIT’19
• Best Reviewer - IEEE ICAS 2021

FRANZE' has taught undergraduate and graduate courses in Automatic Control, Digital Control, and Robotics at the University of Calabria for over 25 years. He has chaired institutional committees, including the Degree Course Council for Automation Engineering and the Research Committee at DIMEG. His scientific partnerships include institutions like Concordia University, Northeastern University, and Université Libre de Bruxelles.
