Nguyen Binh Minh received his Dipl. Ing. Degree (~MS.c) in Computer-Aided Design from the Institute of Automation and Information Technologies, Tambov State Technical University (Russia) in 2008 and his Ph.D. degree in Applied Informatics from the Faculty of Informatics and Information Technology, Slovak University of Technology (STU) in Bratislava (Slovakia) in 2013. Since 2008 to 2013, he worked as researcher at the Institute of Informatics, Slovak Academy of Sciences (IISAS), Slovakia. Currently, he is a senior lecturer and associate professor at Department of Computer Science, School of Information and Communication Technology, Hanoi University of Science and Technology (Vietnam). Simultaneously, he also serves as Director of the Institute for Digital Technology and Economy at the same University. He has participated in many R&D projects such as European FP, Slovakia, bilateral projects between Vietnam and other countries, Nafosted, KC, Ministry of Education and Training, Hanoi University of Science and Technology, and VINIF projects. He is (co-)author of scientific papers, reviewer for national and international scientific conferences, and journals. His research interests include distributed systems, and computational intelligence.
