. Between 1972 and 1992, his major interests include the physics of semiconductors, plasma and solid state physics. During this time, Boris Kerner together with V.V. Osipov developed a comprehensive theory of Autosolitons – solitary intrinsic states, which form in a broad class of physical, chemical and biological dissipative systems.
After emigration from Russia to Germany in 1992, Boris Kerner has been working for Daimler AG company in Stuttgart. His major interest since then was the understanding of highway traffic. The experience with autosolitons, helped B. Kerner to revolutionize the understanding, theory and modelling of highway traffic. Empirical spatiotemporal features of
Life and work
Boris S. Kerner is a leading expert in intelligent transportation systems and in the theory of pattern formation in dissipative physical, chemical, biological systems. He was born in Moscow, Soviet Union in 1947 and graduated from the Moscow Technical University MIREA in 1972. In 1979 and 1986 he became, respectively, degrees of PhDPHD
