Dr. Zhou Jin, a recent PhD graduate of the University of Macau (UM) Faculty of Science and Technology, was highly praised by Prof. Keith W. Hipel, president of the Academy of Science of the Royal Society of Canada, for his doctoral dissertation. Prof. Hipel, who is a member of the Examination Committee, professor of systems design engineering at the University of Waterloo, president of the Academy of Science of the Royal Society of Canada, and senior fellow of the Centre for International Governance Innovation, said, "the high quality of Mr. Zhou's PhD research easily satisfies the strict quality standards required at well-known universities around the globe such as the Imperial College in the United Kingdom, MIT in the United States, and the Tokyo Institute of Technology in Japan." It shows that UM is making good progress towards becoming a world-class university.
Supervised by Chair Professor Philip Chen, Dr. Zhou’s dissertation concerns the development of original methodologies for effectively carrying out multi-attribute based data modelling in Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) in which high-dimensional data can be optimally collected and processed in wireless sensor networks. Dr. Zhou has made many seminal contributions in the field of CPS, particularly intelligent transportation systems. Much of Dr. Zhou’s research has been recognised internationally via the publication of three journal papers, two of which in the prestigious IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems and the third one in the renowned IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems. Dr. Zhou has also published five IEEE conference papers, two of which have received the Best Paper Award in 2012 and 2013 respectively.
澳門大學科技學院畢業生周勁博士，在院長陳俊龍講座教授指導下發表的研究論文獲得論文評審委員會成員、加拿大皇家學會科學院院長、國際治理創新中心資深研究員、滑鐵盧大學系統工程設計學Keith W. Hipel 教授高度評價。他讚揚“周博士高質素的博士論文完全達到英國皇家學院、美國麻省理工學院、日本東京工業大學等全球頂尖大學的嚴格標準。”由此可見，澳大已漸漸朝著世界大學的水平邁進。
周博士的論文探討如何用創新的方法在物聯網系統（CPS）中有效地進行基於多屬性的數據建模，從而實現無線傳感器網絡中高維數據收集和處理的最佳化。他在物聯網系統領域，尤其是智慧交通系統領域，做出了很多影響深遠的重大貢獻。周博士的大部分研究已獲得國際認同。他至今發表了三篇期刊論文，其中兩篇發表於《IEEE 智慧運輸系統彙刊》(IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems)，第三篇發表於《IEEE 模糊系統彙刊》(IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems)。此外，周博士還發表了五篇IEEE會議論文，其中兩篇於2012年和2013年分別榮獲最佳論文獎。
