He has published several books, including ` Emergency Planning Knowledge ' (VdF Verlag, 1996), ` Critical infrastructures at risk: Securing the European electric power system ' (Springer, 2006), and ` Critical infrastructures: Risk and vulnerability assessment in transportation of dangerous goods - Transportation by road and rail ' (Springer, 2016).
Marius-Ioan Piso is a Romanian scientist serving as the head of the Romanian Space Agency (ROSA). Since 1998 he is Research Professor in the Institute of Space Science Bucharest. In 1994 he undertook studies in Doctor in Physics from the "Alexandru Ioan Cuza" University of Iasi, Iasi, Romania. He is a graduate of the "Babes-Bolyai" University of Cluj with a degree in Physics. He is also a 1999 graduate of the National Defense College in Bucharest, Romania. Since 1990, he worked for the establishment of the Romanian Space Agency and became its first executive director in 1995 and appointed President and Chief Executive officer in 2004. He did early work in gravitational radiation and space-time physics. He also performed experimental work in motion measurement and developed a class of inertial sensors and actuators with nanomagnetic fluids, authoring more than 20 patents and 40 papers. Since the late 1990's he involved in studies and decision making for utilizing space technology in disaster management and planetary defense. For more than two decades, Marius-Ioan Piso has acted as a high-level representative for international bodies including: United Nations Committee of the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (UNCOPUOS), North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and national delegate for the European Space Agency (ESA). He is a member of several national and international research bodies on space research and development and security research including the International Academy of Astronautics (IAA) serving as an elected trustee and chairman of section. He established, within the IAA, a study group on "Space Systems as Critical Infrastructures" in 2006 and organized a series of conferences on this topics and studies on planetary defense. He has received several hours including ` Doctor Honoris Causa ' and knighthoods. An asteroid discovered in 1981 bears his name.
