DESCRIPTION:Prof. Hojjat Adeli\, The Ohio State University\nIn this lectur
 e the author presents the vision of sustainability via intelligent infrast
 ructure. This vision encompasses two different areas of smart structures a
 nd intelligent transportation systems. Multidisciplinary methodologies and
  computational models are presented for health monitoring and non linear v
 ibration control of smart structures subjected to extreme dynamic loading 
 due to winds and earthquakes and automated detection of incidents in intel
 ligent freeways. They are based on adroit integration of advanced signal p
 rocessing techniques such as wavelets\, nonlinear science/chaos theory\, a
 nd computational intelligence techniques such as neurocomputing\, evolutio
 nary computing\, and fuzzy logic.\nHojjat Adeli received his Ph.D. from St
 anford University in 1976. He is Professor of Civil\, Environmental\, and 
 Geodetic Engineering\, Biomedical Informatics\, Biomedical Engineering\, E
 lectrical and Computer Engineering\, Neuroscience\, and Neurology at The O
 hio State University. He has authored 15 books. He is the Founder and Edit
 or-in-Chief of international research journals Computer-Aided Civil and In
 frastructure and Integrated Computer-Aided Engineering\, and the Editor-in
 -Chief of International Journal of Neural Systems. In 2005\, he was electe
 d Distinguished Member\, ASCE: "for wide-ranging\, exceptional\, and pione
 ering contributions to computing in civil engineering and extraordinary le
 adership in advancing the use of computing and information technologies in
  many engineering disciplines throughout the world." In 2010 he was profil
 ed as an Engineering Legend in the ASCE journal of Leadership and Manageme
 nt in Engineering\, and Wiley-established the Hojjat Adeli Award for Innov
 ation in Computing. In 2011 World Scientific established the Hojjat Adeli 
 Award for Outstanding Contributions in Neural Systems. He is a Fellow of I
 EEE\, the American Association for the Advancement of Science\, American N
 eurological Society\, and American Institute of Medical and Biomedical Eng
 ineering. Amoug his numerous awards are a special medal from Polish Neural
  Network Society\, the Eduardo Renato Caianiello Award for Excellence in S
 cientific Research from the Italian society of Neural Networks\, the Omar 
 Khayyam Research Excellence Award from Scientia Iranica\, an Honorary Doct
 orate from Vilnius Gediminas Technical University\, and corresponding memb
 er of the Spanish royal Engineering Society.
