What it's like doing a Ph.D. degree at McMaster with Dr. Bone:
"It is a very exciting experience to study as a Ph.D student with Dr.
Bone. I have learned so much from Dr. Bone including not only the knowledge
but also his scientific working attitude. Dr. Bone gives me help in
detail whenever I encounter problems. Can you imagine a professor who
would check your program sentence by sentence? He does! I really enjoy
my studying here at McMaster University."

Degree Dates: Sept.92-Aug.98
Research Interests: Real-time control of dynamic
systems.
What it's like doing a Ph.D. degree at McMaster with Dr. Bone:
"Dr. Bone has a profound theoretical background and practical experience
on real-time control of dynamic systems. He also gives his student very
close supervision. This allowed him to give me much timely guidance
and advice. He also went out of his way and helped me with software
and hardware design. His help was especially valuable at times when
my research was not going anywhere. I truely appreciated Dr. Bone's
supervision, and have no reservation in recommending him to anyone as
a thesis supervisor."
*Co-supervised with Dr. M.A. Elbestawi.
