Background

Dr. Cheng Siong Chin led numerous multi-disciplinary research initiatives with industries at Newcastle University in Singapore campus. He was actively involved in forming, storming, and norming team members, including industry partners leading to writing a final proposal for submission. He actively participated in the reviewers' panel presentation and negotiation, leading to the research grant award.

He is currently a Reader (Associate Professor) in Intelligent Systems Design with Newcastle University in Singapore and Adjunct Professor to Chongqing University, School of Automotive Engineering. He has achieved over 100 publications, 7 books (by IET, CRC Press, Springer, and others), and 3 US Patents. Since 2013, he obtained 3 research grants and 5 EDB-Industrial Postgraduate Programme (IPP) grants, 1 Global Excellence Fund, and 1 Industrial Research Fund from ST Electronics funded by Defence Innovative Research Programme in intelligent systems design, simulation, predictive analytics and industrial digitalization. His research interests include the intelligent systems modelling and simulation of complex systems for an uncertain environment in the following areas: robotics, marine engineering, energy systems and acoustics.

He is a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy, a Fellow of IMarEST, a Senior Member of IEEE, and a Chartered Engineer with IET. He served as a Lead Guest Editor for the Journal of Advanced Transportation (Special Issue on Intelligent Autonomous Transport Systems Design and Simulation) and organizer for Special Session on Smart and Intelligent Controller Based Grid Integration of Renewable Energy System in IEEE TENCON 2019. He was the Panel Member for Senior Member of IEEE Application in Region 10 in 2014 and 2017. He was invited as Plenary Speaker and Chief Guest for IEEE International Conference on Power, Energy control and Transmission Systems in 2018 in India. He served as the General Chair and the Technical Review Committee Member in various international conferences (ICRAI 2019 in NTU) related to intelligent systems.

He was invited to the European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA) Workshop on Shore-Side Electricity involving Equipment and Technology, Planning, Operations, and Safety in 2021. He participated in a Working Group, "IEEE Recommended Practice for Industrial Agents: Integration of Software Agents and Low-Level Automation Functions." It was organized by IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) in conjunction with the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society (IES) and the IEEE Systems, Man and Cybernetics Society (SMC). The IEEE 2660.1-2020 standard was later published in Jan 2021.

He is the Associate Editor of IEEE Access, IEEE Earthzine (marine power and battery systems), IEEE Transportation Electrification Community eNewsletter (marine/Shipboard/EV), and Electronics (Systems & Control Engineering and Artificial Intelligence Circuits and Systems, Electrical and Autonomous Vehicles Section).

He is a system engineer, researcher, mentor, and lecturer who works diligently to drive common research interests forward. He always believes in hands-on-approach to conduct his systems design works.
