Dr. Joong Hoon Kim is a professor at the School of Civil, Environmental, and Architectural Engineering, Korea University since March 1993. He has earned the B.E. degree in Civil Engineering from Korea University in 1984. He received an M.S.C.E. from Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in 1986 and the Doctor of Philosophy from the University of Texas at Austin in 1992. He worked as a faculty associate at Arizona State University from August 1989 to July 1990. He also worked at the Flood Control District of Maricopa County, Arizona, USA, as a branch manager from January 1991 to February 1993. He was Chair of School of Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering, Korea University for four years. Professor Kim is currently managing several government projects including research of “Establishment of Original Technology and Globalization Strategy of Harmony Search Algorithm” funded by National Research Foundation of Korea, and “Technology to Improve Urban Disaster Prevention Performance for Flood Proofing Facilities and Development of Optimal Design & Operation system for Urban drainage network” funded by Natural Hazard Mitigation Research Group, National Emergency Management Agency of Korea.Dr. Zong Woo Geem is an assistant professor at Gachon University in South Korea. He has obtained B.S. degree in Chung-Ang University in Civil Engineering (1991), Master of Engineering (1995) and Ph.D. (2000) in Water Resources Engineering at Korea University. He invented a music-inspired optimization algorithm, Harmony Search, which has been applied to various scientific and engineering problems, for his Ph.D. dissertation under supervision of Prof. Joong Hoon Kim. He served as an academic advisor in iGlobal University at Annandale, Virginia, USA. Professor Geem is currently an associate editor of engineering optimization journal and a guest editor of International Journal of Bio-Inspired Computation and Journal of Applied Mathematics. Besides, he is a member of editorial board of International Journal of Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Optimization. Professor Geem is active reviewer for 74 journals including SCIe journals.His research interest includes phenomenon-mimicking algorithm and its applications to energy, environment and water fields, and water distribution systems. He has published more than 90 papers in SCI, and SCIe and domestic journals.
