Marcelo Godoy Simões, a Brazilian-American engineer from the Colorado School of Mines, Golden, CO[1][2][3] was named Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) in 2016[4] for application of artificial intelligence in control of power electronics systems.

Life and career

Simões received a B.Sc. degree from University of São Paulo, Brazil, an M.Sc. degree from University of São Paulo, Brazil, and a Ph.D. degree from The University of Tennessee, USA in 1985, 1990 and 1995 respectively. He received his D. Sc. degree (Livre-Docência) from the University of São Paulo in 1998. Dr. Simões was a Fulbright Fellow for AY 2014-15, in the Aalborg University, Institute of Energy Technology (Denmark). He joined Colorado School of Mines in 2000. During the past several years he applied several intelligent based control for advancing high power electronics applications for distributed energy systems and smart-grid technology. He is a recipient of the NSF - Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Award in 2002, one of the most prestigious award for new faculty members supporting activities of young teacher-scholars. He served as the director of the Center for Advanced Control of Energy and Power Systems – ACEPS and the Colorado Electric Power Research Consortium – CEPRC at the Colorado School of Mines. Dr. Simões has been teaching and conducting research of fuzzy logic, neural networks, bayesian networks, and in multi-agent systems for power electronics, drives and machines control, building an academic framework for advancing the integration of users with the distribution grid in applications defined as "smart-grid technology." [1]

Dr. Simões work is internationally recognized, with highly cited papers and books. He is conducting cooperation with several institutions in several countries, serving as advisor for students and research programs. He was hired as a visiting professor with UTBM – University of Technology of Belfort-Montbéliard and ENS - l'École Normale Supérieure de Cachan, in France, supervised an international power quality laboratory in Brazil at São Paulo State University – UNESP, and is currently serving as technical advisor for Universidad APEC in the República Dominicana. He published several books in English, application of induction generators for renewable energy systems (CRC Press), integration of alternative sources of energy (Wiley/IEEE), modeling power electronics and energy systems (IEEE/Wiley), instrumentation for smart-grid (CRC Press), power electronics for integration of renewable energy systems with Springer-Verlag, and published the only book available in Portuguese language about fuzzy logic modeling and control..

Dr. Simões has been an IEEE Senior Member since 1998 and has served IEEE in various capacities. He was IEEE PELS Educational Chairman, IEEE PELS Intersociety Liaison and Associate-Editor for Energy Conversion, as well as Editor for Intelligent Systems of IEEE Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems, and Associate-Editor for Power Electronics in Drives of IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics. He was Transactions Paper Review Chair for IAS/IACC and Vice-Chair of IEEE IAS/MSDAD. Dr. Simões organized several conferences and technical sessions for IEEE for the past few years, was the Program Chair for IEEE PESC 2005, active in the Steering and Organization Committee of the IEEE International Future Energy Challenge and also the organizer of the 1st PEEW’05 - Power Electronics Education Workshop. He organized the IEEE GreenTech 2017 in Denver, Colorado. Dr. Simões coordinated PELS Chapter activities in Denver, he is the founder of IEEE Denver Chapter of the Power Electronics Society as well as the founder of the IEEE IES Denver Chapter, where he is currently serving as Chapter Chair. He was the Chair for the IEEE IES Smart-Grid Committee.[1]
