Bert van Beek is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e). He specializes in model-based engineering, focusing on the modeling, interactive simulation-based validation, visualization, supervisory control synthesis, and real-time controller code-generation for hybrid industrial systems. He is one of the founders and major contributors to the CIF formalism toolset, which was developed as part of European projects. This toolset supports the entire development process of controllers, including specification, supervisory controller synthesis, simulation-based validation, visualization, verification, and real-time testing. His research promotes efficiency in the development of supervisory controllers, allowing systems to be completed in a shorter timeframe while being supported by a robust theoretical framework. Bert holds a Master of Science in Electrical Engineering from TU/e, which he completed with distinction in 1985, and he attained his PhD in 1993. He has been actively involved in international projects, including being a member of the executive committee of the HYCON network and work package leader in multiple EU FP7 projects.
