Research

I am a research associate in the ASAP group in the department of Computer Science at the University of Nottingham. I am currently working on the project: Next Generation Decision Support: Automating the heuristic design process. Within this project I am also working with the Norwegian research organisation SINTEF on the project: Health Care Optimisation Software for Planning, Rostering, and Scheduling.
