Nonlinear Circuits and Systems with Memristors

Fernando Corinto s research activities are mainly in nonlinear circuits and systems, locally coupled nonlinear/nanoscale networks and memristor nanotechnology. He received a Masters' Degree in Electronic Engineering and a Ph.D. in Electronics and Communications Engineering at Politecnico di Torino in 2001 and 2005 respectively, then went on to receive a European Doctorate. He is currently associate professor of Circuit Theory in the Department of Electronics and Telecommunications. In 2004, he was awarded the Marie Curie Fellowship. Prof. Corinto co-authored 6 book chapters and over 140 international journals and conference papers. Since 2010, he has been a senior member of the IEEE and vice-chairman of the IEEE North Italy CAS Chapter. He is a member of the IEEE CAS TC Nonlinear Circuits and Systems and chairman of the IEEE CAS Technical Committee on Cellular Nanoscale Networks and Array Computing. In 2014-2015 he was elected the associate editor of the IEEE Trans. on Circuits and Systems - I. Prof. Corinto is on the editorial board and a reviewer for the International Journal of Circuit Theory and Applications , since 2015. He is vice chairman of the COST Action: Memristors - Devices, Models, Circuits, Systems and Applications (MemoCiS). He was elected to the DRESDEN Senior Fellows at the Technische Universitat Dresden in 2013 and 2017 and was the visiting professor at August- Wilhelm Scheer Technische Universitat München in 2016. Moreover, Prof. Corinto is also a member of the Institute for Advanced Study-Technische Universitat Munchen. Mauro Forti is currently Professor of Electrical Engineering at the Department of Information Engineering of the University of Siena (Italy). The main scientific interests are in nonlinear circuit theory and neural networks. He is author of more than 100 international publications (72 in international journals, 39 of which in transactions of the IEEE). He has served as Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems-I: Fundamental Theory and Applications. Since 2014 he serves as an Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Cybernetics. Dr. Forti cooperates as a reviewer with several international journals on topics concerning nonlinear dynamics of circuits and systems. Current bibliometric indicators (July 2018): Google Scholar: h-index = 24; total citations = 3490. Scopus: h-index = 22; total citations = 2650. Leon O. Chua received his MSEE from Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1961, and the Ph.D. from University of Illinois, Urban-Champaign in 1964. After that he was assistant and associate professor at Purdue University until 1970. He has been a professor of electrical engineering and computer sciences at the University of California at Berkeley since 1971. Dr. Chua is known as a pioneer in 3 major research areas, namely, nonlinear circuits, chaos, and cellular neural networks. His work in these areas has been recognized internationally through numerous major awards, including 12 honorary doctorates from major universities in Europe and Japan, and 7 USA patents. He was elected as Fellow of IEEE in 1974, a foreign member of the European Academy of Sciences (Academia Europea) in 1997, and a foreign member of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in 2007. He was honored with many prestigious awards and prizes, including
