He has published several books, including 'Emergency Planning Knowledge' (VdF Verlag, 1996), 'Critical infrastructures at risk: Securing the European electric power system' (Springer, 2006), and 'Critical infrastructures: Risk and vulnerability assessment in transportation of dangerous goods - Transportation by road and rail' (Springer, 2016). Dan V. Vamanu is a senior researcher at Horia Hulubei National Institute of Physics and Nuclear Engineering (Bucharest, Romania). He holds a Ph.D. in Theoretical Physics (1978). He originally worked in the field of quantum theory of solids, publishing on elementary excitations - phonons and magnons in thin films and impure crystals. He co-authored a review on thin magnetic films in the American Encyclopedia Solid State Physics (vol. 27, Academic Press), and the book- 'Emergency Planning Knowledge' (VdF Verlag, 1996), 'Integrated Risk and Vulnerability Management Assisted by Decision Support Systems: Relevance and Impact on Governance' (Springer, 2005) and 'Critical Infrastructures at Risk: Securing the European Electric Power System' (Springer, 2006). Polinpapilinho F. Katina is currently a postdoctoral researcher at the National Centers for System ofSystems Engineering and an adjunct assistant professor at the Department of Engineering Management and Systems Engineering at Old Dominion University (Norfolk, Virginia, USA). He holds a B.Sc. in Engineering Technology, an M.Eng. in Systems Engineering and a Ph.D. in Engineering Management/Systems Engineering from the same university. He received additional training at Politecnico di Milano (Milan, Italy). He is a guest editor and has written more than 60 scholarly publications, as well as two books: 'Infranomics: Sustainability, Engineering Design and Governance' (Springer, 2014) and 'Critical Infrastructures: Risk and Vulnerability Assessment in Transportation of Dangerous Goods - Transportation by Road and Rail' (Springer, 2016). Roland Pulfer is the founder and strategy officer of Action4Value GmbH (Kirchseelte, Germany). He holds a Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering and is active in various roles for innovative software companies in the areas of enterprise digitization, holistic search technology, cyber defence, and conformance monitoring. Dr. Pulfer is a member of the Technical Supervisory Board for Old Dominion University (Norfolk, Virginia, USA). His book publications include: Business (re-) engineering: Best Practices: The TopEaseTM Approach (2001) and Control Your Business: The Balance between Principles and Pragmatism (2006).
