Research
My
research focuses on sustainable infrastructure lifecycle management systems.
These advanced information systems integrate a variety of methods and
techniques to improve the services and performance of the infrastructures of our
society (e.g., roads, bridges, buildings, etc.) within the limited available
budget constraints. My research is broad and cross-disciplinary because the
lifecycle of infrastructures goes through several stages (planning, design,
construction, operation, inspection and monitoring, repair and maintenance, and
finally demolition and recycling) that should be optimized in an integrated
way. Furthermore, managing infrastructures in case of emergencies adds another
challenging dimension to this research because different aspects of the
operation and services of the infrastructures should be considered under severe
constraints of limited time and resources. The investigated methods and
techniques include spatio-temporal information
modeling and analysis, simulation, visualization, optimization, wireless
communications, sensing, auto-identification, and real-time location tracking.
