Beg's scientific contributions cover a wide range of topics spanning fixed point theory and approximations, fuzzy sets and systems, artificial intelligence and multicriteria decision theory.[4][5] [6]

Early life and education

Ismat Beg was born in Mohri Sharif, in 1951 to a migrated Kashmiri family. He got his primary schooling in village school sitting under trees. In 1961 his father took him to Risalpur and he was sent to Sapper Boys High School, Risalpur Cantt. After passing Secondary School Certificate in 1966 he joined Zamindar College, Bhimber Road, Gujrat for Higher Secondary School Certificate and Bachelor of Science. He did his master's degree at Government College, Lahore (now Government College University (Lahore)).[5]

In 1977, Beg travelled to Romania on a scholarship which he applied and qualified. In 1977–78, Beg attended the West University of Timișoara for Romanian language and pre-doctoral courses and passed the PhD entrance exam for the University of Bucharest. He started his PhD in fall of 1978 under the supervision of academician Romulus Cristescu[7]. His area of research is ordered vector spaces and linear operators with specialization in integral representation of linear operators. He defended his thesis in December 1981 and degree was awarded in 1982.[8]

Academic career

Ismat Beg started teaching just after his PhD in 1982 and has served[1][2][9] in

He has published research papers in the fields of mathematics, computer science, economics, game theory, engineering, decision theory and social sciences that have been well cited by other researchers.[10][11] He has contributed to the fields of fixed point theory, fuzzy set theory, order structures, preference modeling and multi-criteria multi-agent decision making.[10][12] Beg has supervised 12 M.Phil. theses, 7 Ph.D. dissertations, and 10 post doctoral researchers.[7] He is member of the editorial boards of

gollark: That seems somewhat arbitrary.
gollark: No, I mean by the government, which probably has to go to lots of effort to run such a system and define what "food" is.
gollark: So would just giving people money to spend on food. Less overhead with working out what counts as acceptable food too probably.
gollark: Clean water *from taps*? As opposed to by going to a shop or something.
gollark: Technically I just "need" 1500 calories in some ratio of nutrients, but I like to have somewhat more than this and also food I like, so "universal basic food" would be bad.
