María Belén Pérez Lancho is a Full Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Automation at the University of Salamanca, Spain. With over 25 years of academic experience since completing her PhD in 1995, she maintains active affiliations with multiple research groups including BISITE (Bioinformatics, Intelligent Computing Systems and Educational Technology), CaUSAL (Academic Culture, Heritage and Social Memory), and Process Supervision and Control. Dr. Pérez Lancho earned her doctoral degree from the University of Salamanca with her thesis "Integrated process control system: a practical approach" supervised by Dr. Eladio Sanz García. Her academic foundation in systems engineering and automation has evolved into diverse research applications across multiple domains. Her research program demonstrates remarkable breadth while maintaining technical coherence. She has pioneered context-aware multiagent systems for home care environments, developing architectures like HoCa and HoCCAC that monitor patients and optimize task scheduling. In environmental science, she created hybrid intelligent systems for forest fire prediction using Case-Based Reasoning with topology-preserving algorithms. More recently, she has addressed cybersecurity challenges in educational technology through two-factor authentication systems. Her work consistently bridges theoretical computer science with practical implementations in real-world settings. Analysis of her publication trajectory reveals a consistent focus on adaptive intelligent systems that respond to environmental changes. Her earliest work established foundations in systems engineering, which evolved into sophisticated multi-agent applications across healthcare, environmental monitoring, and security domains. The most recent publications continue this trajectory while addressing contemporary challenges in educational technology security. Dr. Pérez Lancho maintains extensive collaborative relationships, particularly with Juan M. Corchado at the University of Salamanca, as evidenced by numerous co-authored publications.
