Biography - Stanković Srđan
Srdjan Stanković was born 1964 in Montenegro. He received the B.S. (Hons.) degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Montenegro, in 1988, the M.S. degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Zagreb, Croatia, in 1991, and the Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Montenegro in 1993.
He received the Awards for first place in Montenegro in the High School Physics competitions (1981, 1982), the Award for the best student in Montenegro (1987), the Award of Montenegrin Academy of Science and Arts for scientific achievements as a young researcher (1995).
From 1988 to 1992, he worked in the Aluminum Plant of Podgorica as a Research Assistant. In 1992 he joined the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, University of Montenegro, where he is currently a Full Professor. In the period 2007-2013, he was the Dean of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, University of Montenegro. His interests are in Signal Processing, Multimedia Systems, and Digital electronics. During the winter semester, 2014/2015 Prof. Stankovic was in the position of Vice-Rector of the University of Montenegro.
He is a member of the Board of Directors in Montenegrin Broadcasting Company since 2004. Currently, he is the President of the Board of Directors in Montenegrin Broadcasting Company.
In 1998 he spent a period of time with the Department of Informatics at the Aristotle University in Thessaloniki, supported by the Greek IKY foundation. In 1999-2000, he was on leave at the Darmstadt University of Technology, with the Signal Theory Group, supported by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation. In 2002, he spent three months at the Department of Computer Science, the University of Applied Sciences Bonn-Rhein-Sieg, as an Alexander von Humboldt Fellow. From 2004 to 2006, he stayed several times with the E3I2 Laboratory, ENSIETA, Brest, France. From 2007 to 2010 he visited (one-month research stay) Centre for digital signal processing research at King's College London, Laboratory of mathematical methods of image processing, at Moscow State University Lomonosov, as well as GIPSA Laboratory at INP Grenoble. He spent academic 2012/2013 with the Center for Advanced Communications at Villanova University, PA. In 2014 he spent a semester with GIPSA Lab, INP Grenoble. In 2016 he stayed (one-month stays) at the Swanson School of Engineering, University of Pittsburgh as well as at the Heidelberg Collaboratory for Image Processing, Heidelberg University.
He was an advisor for four Ph.D. theses, one of them was conducted and defended in INP Grenoble. The Ph.D. thesis of Irena Orović (that he advised) was awarded in Ljubljana for the best thesis in the region.
He was an advisor of the thesis of student Alexander Klaeser from the University Bonn-Rhein-Sieg, Germany. The thesis was conducted in Montenegro and it was awarded as the best thesis in Germany in 2004 in the area of Informatics.
He has published a book "Multimedia Signals and Systems" by Springer and several textbooks on electronics devices (in Montenegrin).
He co-authored three monographs on time-frequency signal analysis (in English). He published about 300 papers, among them almost 100 in the leading scientific journals (web of science - SCI/SCIE) in the areas of Signals, Systems, and Image processing.
In 2010, he was the Lead Guest Editor of the EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing for a special issue: Time-frequency analysis and its applications to multimedia signals, as well as the Guest Editor of Signal Processing for special issue: Fourier related transforms. He was the Lead Guest Editor of the IET Signal Processing for the 2014 Special issue: Compressive Sensing and Robust Transforms.
From 2005 to 2009 Dr. Stanković was serving as an Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Image Processing.
He is a Senior member of the IEEE.
In 2011 he was awarded by the Ministry of Science in Montenegro as the Leader of the Best Scientific Project in Montenegro.
In 2017 he got EURASIP Best Paper Award for the paper published in the Signal Processing journal.
He is the President of the National Council for Higher Education.
The main scientific results of Prof. Srdjan Stankovic are:
-A new highly concentrated distribution for time frequency signal analysis: Complex time distribution and its generalized versions
-Introducing a joint time frequency domain in Digital Watermarking
-New algorithms for Compressive sensing
-A comprehensive study of hardware systems for time-frequency signal analysis
He is fluent in English and French, he has a basic knowledge of Spanish and Germain, as well as a passive knowledge of Russian.
In the period 2019-2021, Professor Stankovic performed the duty of Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador of Montenegro in the Argentina Republic, with a residency in Buenos Aires.
