Rudolf Kalman receives the Nordic Process Control Award

The Nordic Process Control Award is awarded for lasting and significant contributions to
the field of process control.  The 14th recipient of this award is Professor Rudolf Kalman
who received the award for his seminal contributions to all aspects of control systems theory.

The award winner was announced on January 15, 2015 during the 19th Nordic Process
Control Workshop held at the ship between Trondheim and Bodo in Norway.
Unfortunately, Professor Kalman could not be present in person, but a very nice video interview
