Bio: Takeshi Hatanaka received the Ph.D. degree in applied mathematics and physics from Kyoto University in 2007. He then
joined Tokyo Institute of Technology in 2007, where he held positions as an assistant and associate professor. In 2016, he spent an eight months sabbatical at School of Engineering and Applied Sciences of Harvard University. Since April 2018, he is an associate professor at Osaka University. He is the coauthor of Passivity-Based Control and Estimation in Networked Robotics (Springer, 2015). His research interests include networked robotics and energy management systems. He received the Kimura Award (2017), Pioneer Award (2014), Outstanding Book Award (2016) and Outstanding Paper Awards (2009, 2015) all from SICE. He also received 10th Asian Control Conference Best Paper Prize Award (2015). He is an AE for IEEE TSCT and SICE JCMSI, and a member of the Conference Editorial Board of IEEE CSS.
