I am a Senior Scientist in Prof. Florian Dörfler's group, at the Automatic Control Laboratory of ETH Zurich. I am passionate about applications of networked control theory to complex systems like power grids and autonomous mobility. I care about the efficiency of these systems, but also their fairness. I am currently looking into the intersection between nonlinear optimization and feedback control design, and I always like to learn more about control theory, distributed optimization, stochastic optimization, and game theory.
News and latest talks
9 and 23 May 2022 - NCCR Automation Symposium on Systems Theory of Algorithms
NCCR Automation is organizing the first symposium on Systems Theory of Algorithms.
Iterative algorithms in optimization, games, and learning are dynamical systems with inputs, outputs, and uncertainty. The symposium explores the systems and control theory behind such algorithms shaping our reality.
20-23 June 2022 - EECI International Graduate School on Control
Module M19 "Control and Optimization of Autonomous Power Systems"
Lecturers: Florian Dörfler and Saverio Bolognani
Registration: EECI Website
5-7 July 2022 - IFAC Conference on Networked Systems
NecSys22 will take place at ETH in Zurich next summer. It will feature a great list of plenary speakers, an IFAC Young Author Award spotlight presentation, and interactive poster sessions of contributed papers.
