Research interests
Model driven engineering and complex systems; fitness for purpose; practical approaches to anything complex.
Postgraduate supervision
Model driven engineering, notably for agent simulation (see Zschaler and Polack, SLE, 2019).
Uncertainty in simulation.
Simulation as a digital twin.
Fitness for purpose in complex systems models/simulations.
Anything where the PGR knows the subject well enough only need guidance on doing a PhD, not technical input.
