Professor of Engineering Systems,
Engineering Systems Division and the
Department
Civil and Environmental Engineering at
Massachusetts Institute of
Technology, in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
My research interests include the analysis, development and implementation
of robust and efficient techniques for the design, control and operation
of logistics systems and telecommunication networks. In particular, I am
interested in areas such as supply chain, facility location, inventory
models, vehicle routing, as well as production scheduling. I am also very
interested in implementation of advanced algorithms in Decision Support
Systems. Finally, I have been involved in developing innovative
teaching tools for supply chain management. Please check our new
