Mark Adamiak received his Bachelor of Science and Master of Engineering degrees from Cornell University in Electrical Engineering and an MS-EE degree from the Polytechnic Institute of New York. From 1976 through 1990, Mark worked for American Electric Power (AEP) in the System Protection and Control section, where his assignments included R&D in digital protection and control, relay and fault analysis, and system responsibility for power line carrier and fault recorders. In 1990, Mark joined General Electric, where his activities have ranged from development and product planning to system integration. He is currently Advanced Technology Programs manager and is responsible for identifying and developing next-generation technologies for the utility and industrial protection and control markets. In addition, Mr. Adamiak has been actively involved in the development of the IEC61850 communication standard and was the Principal Investigator on the EPRI/E2I Integrated Energy and Communication Systems Architecture (now IntelliGrid) project, a guide for development of utility communication architectures. In 1986, Mark was the winner of the Eta Kappa Nu (HKN) society's "Outstanding Young Electrical Engineer" award. Mark is a Fellow of the IEEE, a member of HKN, a past Chairman of the IEEE Relay Communication Sub Committee, a member of the US team on IEC TC57 - Working Group 10 on Substation Communication, chairman of the Technical Committee of the UCA International Users Group, and a registered Professional Engineer in the State of Ohio. |
