Lacra Pavel
Lăcrămioara (Lăcră) Pavel (born 1965)[1] is a Romanian and Canadian game theorist and electrical engineer whose research applies game theory to network controllability for communications networks and transport networks. She is a professor of electrical and computer engineering at the University of Toronto.
Education and career
[edit]Pavel graduated from the Gheorghe Asachi Technical University of Iași in Romania in 1989. She received a Ph.D. in electrical engineering in 1996, from Queen's University at Kingston in Ontario, Canada.[2]
She was a postdoctoral researcher for National Research Council Canada and then worked in industry before returning to academia in 2002, as a faculty member at the University of Toronto.[2] She was promoted to full professor in 2013.[3]
Book
[edit]Pavel is the author of the book Game Theory for Control of Optical Networks (Birkhäuser, 2012).[4]
Recognition
[edit]Pavel was named to the 2025 class of IEEE Fellows "for contributions to game theory, control, and optimization for network systems".[5]
