Stephen McArthur
Biography
An expert in the industrial application of intelligent systems for power and energy sectors, Stephen McArthur integrates stateof-the-art artificial intelligence research with established industry techniques to deliver applications that enhance energy system operation, control, and management. He set the agenda for international research into multiagent systems for power applications with seminal research papers and leads the U.K.'s EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Future Power Networks and Smart Grids. He provided research leadership in smart grids through the U.K.'s HubNet program and oversaw the creation and deployment of an intelligent system for postfault analysis, in use by protection engineers at ScottishPower Energy Networks, with diagnostic and predictive applications used within EDF’s nuclear power plants to enhance monitoring, inspection, and lifetime extension.
An IEEE Fellow, McArthur is a Distinguished Professor with the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, UK.
