Karl Henrik Johansson

Karl Henrik Johansson (born 1967 in Växjö, Sweden) is a Swedish researcher and best known for his pioneering contributions to networked control systems, cyber-physical systems, and hybrid systems. His research has had particular application impact in transportation, automation, and energy networks. He holds a Chaired Professorship in Networked Control at the KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden. He is Director of .

Career[]

Karl H. Johansson graduated from Lund University in Sweden with an MSc in 1992 and a PhD in 1997. He did a postdoc at UC Berkeley 1998-2000 and has since then held the positions of Assistant, Associate, and Full Professor at the Department of Automatic Control at KTH Royal Institute of Technology. He has directed the ACCESS Linnaeus Centre 2009-2016 and the Strategic Ressearch Area ICT TNG 2013-2020, two of the largest research environments in electrical engineering and computer science in Sweden. He has held visiting positions at UC Berkeley, California Institute of Technology, Nanyang Technological University, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology Institute of Advanced Studies, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, and Zhejiang University.

He is a member of the Swedish Research Council's Scientific Council for Natural Sciences and Engineering Sciences. He has served on the IEEE Control Systems Society Board of Governors, the IFAC Executive Board, and he is currently the Vice-President of the . He is past Chair of the IFAC Technical Committee on Networked Systems.

He has been on the Editorial Boards of Automatica, IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, , and IET Control Theory and Applications. He currently serves on the Editorial Boards of Annual Review of Control, Robotics, and Autonomous Systems and . He was the General Chair of the ACM/IEEE 2010 and IPC Chair of many conferences.

His research focuses on networked control systems, cyber-physical systems, and applications in transportation, energy, and ; areas in which he has co-authored more than 700 journal and conference papers. He has advised more than 40 postdocs and 20 PhD students.
