Short Biography

Nizar Rokbani graduated in Electrical Engineering from the National Engineering School of Tuins, ENIT in 1995. He obtained a Master degree in industrial computing in 2003 from the National Engineering School of Sfax, ENIS, and a PHD in Electrical Engineering from the same school.

He was an automation & process engineer until 1998, he was then a technologic trainer at the institute of technological studies of Gabes, occupied a post of training adviser engineer at the national agency of vocational training from 2003 to 2006. Since that, he was with the University of Gabes and Sousse.

His research interests include applications of intelligent techniques such as Swarm intelligence, computational intelligence, fuzzy logic, evolutionary algorithms to robotic systems and to industrial processes. He served as PC member in several National and international conferences including ISA, IEEE ICBR, CEIT, AMTM,....

Dr. Nizar Rokbani is an IEEE member; he served in several volunteering positions in IEEE RAS and SMC Tunisia Chapters since 2009. He organized the IEEE Robocomp robotics competition since 2010. He is very active in promoting open hard electronics with a specific focus on robotics and related applications. Since 2014 he is the vice-president of Tunarduino, an association dedicated to promote open hard in Tunisia.
