Prof. Michał Karpowicz

Michał Karpowicz joined NASK PIB in 2006 and embarked on a complete career path, starting as an assistant and eventually becoming a professor at the institute while leading teams and departments.

Recently, he became a Visiting Professor at the Department of Mathematics at MIT. He was also a long-time lecturer at the Faculty of Electronics and Information Technology at the Warsaw University of Technology.

Author of a meta-factorization theory in numerical linear algebra, a theory generalizing the idea of matrix decompositions. He formulated optimality conditions for the class of energy-efficient infinite horizon stochastic control problems and necessary and sufficient conditions for the effectiveness of Nash equilibrium points in games induced by the KKT conditions in nonlinear optimization problems with constraints.

He is one of the inventors of the FLDX technology and a designer of energy-efficient network control systems.

Recipient of the NAKS Director Award for his exceptional contribution to the institute’s development. Recipient of the Rector’s Award from the Warsaw University of Technology for his original lecture on Control Theory. Recipient of the Rector’s Scientific Award for the develpment of energy-efficient control mechanisms for computer systems.
