Amir G. Aghdam's Research Lab

Amir Aghdam and his research team members recognize the essential role of equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility (EDIA) in fostering excellence in research, learning, and human advancement and fulfilment. Our objective is to provide fair treatment and opportunity for all students and collaborators and to support and sustain diversity as a valued strength. To achieve this, we constantly endeavour to cultivate the skills to engage EDIA and to create the welcoming environment necessary to promote access for all.

Dr. Aghdam’s research activities focus on various problems in control systems, including multi-agent systems, distributed control, optimization, sensor networks, multi-agent systems, robotics, etc.
