Mission Statement |
My main research topic is the application of Computer Simulation and Artificial Intelligence to study human-centric and coupled human-natural complex adaptive systems. I am a strong advocate of Object Oriented Agent-Based Social Simulation (OOABSS). This is a novel and highly interdisciplinary research field, involving disciplines like Social Science, Economics, Psychology, Geography, Operations Research, and Computer Science. My current research focus is twofold. On the methodological frontier I aim to advance the model development strategies for OOABS. On the practical frontier I look at novel uses of simulation for studying Urban Sustainability (including Smart Cities and Smart Roads), and people's wellbeing at local and global scale. I am a co-investigator in the Leverhulme funded project Sustaining Urban Habitats and a member of the university's "Sustainable and Resilient Cities" Research Priority Area management team. Furthermore, I am working together with Nottingham City Council's Transport Strategy Department on some Smart City projects. |
