Profile
John-Paul Barrington Clarke is an Associate Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics at MIT, where he has taught since 1997. He was born and educated in Jamaica, and earned his S.B (1991), S.M (1992), and Sc.D (1997) at MIT. Prior to joining the MIT Faculty, Professor Clarke was a Visiting Scholar at The Boeing Company , and a Researcher at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory .
Professor Clarke's research and teaching focuses primarily on airline operations and strategy, the application of advanced technology to aircraft operations and air traffic control, the environmental impact of aviation, and the modeling, design and operation of complex systems.
Professor Clarke is a member of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) , the Institute of Navigation (ION), the Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences (INFORMS ), the Airline Group of the International Federation of Operations Research Societies (AGIFORS) and Sigma Xi, The Scientific Research Society .
Dr. Clarke serves on several national and international committees including the FAA Research Engineering and Development Sub-Committee on Environment and Energy , the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) Aircraft Noise Committee and the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Committee on Aviation Environmental Protection (CAEP) Sub-Committee on Aircraft Noise Modeling. Dr. Clarke was awarded the 1999 AIAA/AAAE/ACC Jay Hollingsworth Speas award for the development of effective tools for modeling and evaluating new approaches in noise reduction. These tools have led to solutions to benefit populations everywhere and will be particularly valuable to airports surrounded by noise-sensitive communities.
