À propos de l?auteur

Dr. Seppo J. Ovaska received his D.Sc. degree from Tampere University of Technology in 1989. He served as a Professor at the Aalto University School of Electrical Engineering, and held a Visiting Professorship at Utah State University in 2006-2007. Dr. Ovaska retired in 2019 after 27 years in university faculty and 13 years in industrial R&D--in Finland and the United States. For four decades, embedded systems were at the heart of his engineering and teaching endeavors. His research expertise includes computational intelligence, green computing, and industrial electronics. Professor Ovaska delivered his farewell lecture, "Cybersecurity and Machine Learning," at the University of Kassel in Germany. He has (co-)authored over 270 scholarly papers and is the (co-)inventor of six U.S. patents. This is his fourth book. Currently, Dr. Ovaska is interested in moral philosophy and moral self-licensing in the context of engineering ethics. He is a First Class Knight of the Order of the White Rose of Finland.

Dr. Andrew T. Brei earned Bachelor's degrees in German and philosophy from the University of Wisconsin - Stevens Point in 1996 and a Doctorate in philosophy from Purdue University in 2009.

In 2019, Dr. Brei earned the Distinguished Faculty Award for Excellence in Teaching from the St. Mary's University Alumni Association. He has delivered webinars and keynote addresses to various professional organizations by way of promoting and demystifying ethical reasoning.
