and Computer Science at Syracuse University in January 2004. He spent a sabbatical term in 1996 at the Electrical Engineering Department, University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) and was a visiting Professor at Magdeburg University during the summer of 2005 and at Tampere University of Technology in Finland during the summer of 2007. In 2009 he was selected as Finland Distinguished Professor by the Academy of Finland and TEKES. Dr. Elsherbeni received the 2006 and 2011 School of Engineering Senior Faculty Research Award for Outstanding Performance in research, the 2005 School of Engineering Faculty Service Award for Outstanding Performance in Service, the 2004 Valued Service Award from the Applied Computational Electromagnetics Society (ACES) for Outstanding Service as 2003 ACES Symposium Chair, the Mississippi Academy of Science 2003 Outstanding Contribution to Science Award, the 2002 IEEE Region 3 Outstanding Engineering Educator Award, the 2002 School of Engineering Outstanding Engineering Faculty Member of the Year Award, the 2001 ACES Exemplary Service Award for leadership and contributions as Electronic Publishing Managing Editor 1999-2001, the 2001 Researcher/Scholar of the year award in the Department of Electrical Engineering, The University of Mississippi, and the 1996 Outstanding Engineering Educator of the IEEE Memphis Section. Over the last 24 years, Dr. Elsherbeni participated in acquiring over 10 million dollars to support his research dealing with scattering and diffraction by dielectric and metal objects, finite 122 AUTHORS' BIOGRAPHIES difference time domain analysis of passive and active microwave devices including planar transmission lines, field visualization and software development for EM education, interactions of electromagnetic waves with human body, sensors development for monitoring soil moisture, airport noise levels, air quality including haze and humidity, reflector and printed antennas and antenna arrays for radars, UAV, personal communication systems, antennas for wideband applications, and antenna and material properties measurements. He has co-authored 138 technical journal articles, 25 book chapters, and contributed to over 330 professional presentations, and offered 26 short courses and 29 invited seminars. He is the coauthor of the books entitled The Finite Difference Time Domain Method for Electromagnetics with Matlab Simulations (Scitech, 2009), Antenna Design and Visualization Using Matlab (Scitech, 2006), MATLAB Simulations for Radar Systems Design (CRC Press, 2003), Electromagnetic Scattering Using the Iterative Multiregion Technique (Morgan & Claypool, 2007), and Electromagnetics and Antenna Optimization using Taguchi's Method (Morgan & Claypool, 2007), and the primary author of the chapters "Handheld Antennas" and "The Finite Difference Time Domain Technique for Microstrip Antennas" in Handbook of Antennas in Wireless Communications (CRC Press, 2001), he was the advisor/co-advisor for 33 M.S. and 13 Ph.D. students. Dr. Elsherbeni is a Fellow member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and a fellow member of The Applied Computational Electromagnetic Society (ACES). He is the Editor-in-Chief for ACES Journal, and a past Associate Editor of the Radio Science Journal. He serves on the editorial board of the Book Series on Progress in Electromagnetic Research, and the Electromagnetic Waves and Applications Journal. He was the Chair of the Engineering and Physics Division of the Mississippi Academy of Science and was the Chair of the Educational Activity Committee for the IEEE Region 3 Section.
