Prof. Dr. B.K.N. Rao is the Director of COMADEM International, UK. Back in 1988, he firmly believed in the proactive interdisciplinary based philosophy of condition monitoring and diagnostic engineering management (COMADEM). Since then with the collaboration of many well-known universities, research and development organisations and professional bodies, he has organised annual international congresses and exhibitions on this theme in many different parts of the world. COMADEM is now recognised by many as an international platform where representatives from industry and researchers meet, shaping the future and creating value. He has supervised and externally examined a number PhD projects and published in excess of 150 original papers in many scientific and engineering journals. He has edited/co-edited more than 35 books and conference proceedings in the field of COMADEM. He gained his B.Sc in Physics, chemistry and Mathematics from the University of Mysore; Post graduate Diploma of the Indian Institute of Science (DIISc) in Industrial Administration; M.Sc in Environmental and Human Factors in Engineering from the University of Southampton; PhD in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Birmingham. In 2004, he was awarded the Higher Doctorate in Technology (DTech) from the Sunderland University for "his significant, sustained and distinguished contribution in the field of Condition Monitoring".
