Associate Professor  TAN Kay Chen received the B. Eng degree with First Class Honors in Electronics and Electrical Engineering, and the
Ph.D. degree from the University of Glasgow, Scotland, in 1994 and 1997, respectively. He is actively pursuing research in computational and
artificial intelligence, with applications to multi-objective optimization, scheduling, automation, data mining, and games.

Dr Tan has published over 80 journal papers, 100 papers in conference proceedings, co-authored 5 books including Multiobjective Evolutionary
Algorithms and Applications
(Springer-Verlag, 2005), Modern Industrial Automation Software Design (John Wiley, 2006; Chinese Edition, 2008),
Evolutionary Robotics: From Algorithms to Implementations (World Scientific, 2006), Neural Networks: Computational Models and Applications
(Springer-Verlag, 2007), and Evolutionary Multi-objective Optimization in Uncertain Environments: Issues and Algorithms (Springer-Verlag,
expected in 2008), co-edited 4 books including Recent Advances in Simulated Evolution and Learning (World Scientific, 2004), Evolutionary
Scheduling (Springer-Verlag, 2007), Multiobjective Memetic Algorithms
(Springer-Verlag, expected in 2008), and Computational Intelligence in
Autonomous Robotic Systems (Springer-Verlag, expected in 2008).


Dr Tan has been invited to be a keynote/invited speaker for many international conferences. He served in the international program committee
for over 80 conferences and involved in the organizing committee for over 20 international conferences, including the General Co-Chair for
IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation 2007 in Singapore and the General Co-Chair for
IEEE Symposium on Computational Intelligence
in Scheduling 2009 in Tennessee, USA
. Dr Tan is currently the Chairman of Evolutionary Computation Technical Committee in IEEE Computational
Intelligence Society and a
member of Board of Directors in Evolutionary Programming Society. Dr Tan currently serves as an Associate Editor /
Editorial Board member of 10 international journals, such as IEEE Transactions on Evolutionary Computation, IEEE Transactions on Computational
Intelligence and AI in Games,
European Journal of Operational Research, Journal of Scheduling, and International Journal of Systems Science.

Dr Tan received the Recognition Award (2008) from the International Network for Engineering Education & Research (iNEER) for outstanding
contributions to engineering education and research. He was also a winner of the NUS Outstanding Educator Awards (2004), the Engineering
Educator Awards (2002, 2003, 2005), the Annual Teaching Excellence Awards (2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006), and the Honour Roll Awards (2007).
