Known forContinuous-time system identification, Piecewise Constant Orthogonal Functions (PCBF) and General Hybrid Orthogonal Functions (GHOF) in systems and control

Ganti Prasada Rao (born 25 August 1942) is an Indian author, educator and researcher, well known in the field of systems and control in general, and as a pioneer in the applications of special orthogonal functions and Identification of Continuous-time Systems. For a comparative assessment of identification algorithms with continuous-time and discrete-time models, the Rao-Garnier test system became a bench mark. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8]

Contents

In the early 1970s when the scientific community was ‘going-completely-digital’ in an indirect way via discrete-time models, he suggested the direct path of continuous time models for identification of dynamical systems and developed techniques which outperform the indirect methods. These direct methods are now used in the MATLAB compatible CONtinuous Time System IDentification (CONTSID) Toolbox. [9] [10] Developed at the Université de Lorraine in France. [11] The importance of these identification methods is evident from their compatibility with real world physical systems.

After teaching and research in PSG College of Technology [12] Coimbatore (1969–71)and Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur [13] (1971–97). He became a Member of the UNESCO-EOLSS Joint Committee [14] in the UNESCO - EOLSS Project in 1996. In the course of this ongoing project under the auspices of the UNESCO, he has been actively associated with the development of (1) Encyclopedia of Desalination and Water Resources (DESWARE) [15] and (2) Encyclopedia of Life support Systems (EOLSS). [16]

Education

Rao received the B.E. degree in Electrical Engineering from Andhra University, India in 1963 in first class and high honors, M.Tech. and Ph.D. degrees in 1965 and 1970 respectively, both from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Kharagpur.

Rao has been invited to give lectures around the world. They include the Faraday Memorial Lecture, on 22 September 2006 at Hyderabad under the auspices of the IEEE, [21] the Karl Reinisch Memorial Lecture TU Ilmenau, 2007 and GRD Centenary Distinguished Lecture Coimbatore 2014 to mention a few . He has been an invited participant and plenary speaker at many international conferences of the International Federation of Automatic Control (IFAC), institutions and conferences such as the, Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Polish Academy of Sciences Wroclaw, USSR Academy of Sciences Moscow, etc. He was the Keynote Speaker ICSENG 2005, University of Nevada, Las Vegas, 17–19 August 2005. More recently at International Conference on Mathematics in Space and other Applied Sciences (ICMSAS-2019), 29–30 November 2019, Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Memorial PG college,Hamirpur India [22] [23] and the Chief Guest at the International Conference on Advances in Applicable Mathematics, (ICAAM-2020) at Bharathiar University Coimbatore, India, 21–22 February 2020.

Some of his lectures are based on his investigations in search of hidden connections in mathematics and among some seemingly different fields of knowledge. One of the popular topics in this series is his own justification of the importance of the ancient Hindu concepts of zero and number systems and he shows how these concepts appear to have influenced the mind set of mathematicians to be viewed as the pillars of the world of mathematics.Video on YouTube Video on YouTube

The Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) are a network of engineering and technology institutions in India. Established in 1950, they are under the purview of the Ministry of Education of the Indian Government and are governed by the Institutes of Technology Act, 1961. The Act refers to them as Institutes of National Importance and lays down their powers, duties, and framework for governance as the country's premier institutions in the field of technology. 23 IITs currently fall under the tenor of this act. Each IIT operates autonomously and is linked to others through a common council called the IIT Council, which oversees their administration. The Minister of Education of India is the ex officio chairperson of the IIT Council. According to data obtained through Right to Information (RTI) applications, approximately 38% of Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) graduates from the class of 2024 have not secured job placements. This is the highest percentage in the past three years, with a steady increase from 19% in 2021 and 21% in 2022.
