Ryszard Gessing received the M.Sc. (1959), Ph.D. (1965), D.Sc. (1969) degrees in control engineering from the Department of Electrical Engineering of the Silesian Technical University in Gliwice, Poland. He became professor in 1976 and currently is a head of the Silesian Technical University in Gliwice. In 1989 he was awarded a second professorship by the Polish government. He is the author of about 90 papers, some of them published in journals like "IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control", "IEE Proceedings", "Transactions of ASME", "Systems and Control Letters", and author or co-author of 2 books and several text-books for students. His research interest concern: discrete-time systems, optimal control, optimisation, mutual relations between available information and quality of control, stochastic optimal control and its connection with estimation, large scale systems. He is the member of American Mathematical Society and of two Committees of International Federation of Automatic Control, namely Committee of Robust Control and Committee on Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, as well as the member of editorial board of Archives of Control Sciences, etc. As reviewer he collaborates with such journals as Mathematical Review, Zentralblatt für Mathematik, IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, Automatica, etc.
