on a project of the Center for Complex Engineering Systems focusing on application program interfaces (API), simulation, and modeling design for systems integration platforms. The project investigates ways to study multiple independent models that capture
aspects of different systems such as energy, water, mobility, etc. The aim is to create a platform that permits higher accuracy modeling and prediction for models of systems in several domains and multiple scales. The project includes physics- and data-based
modeling, uncertainty, deterministic and stochastic behaviors, off-line and real-time learning, prediction, and potentially, decision and control. Will oversee day-to-day management and communication with research collaborators at MIT and the sponsor, be
responsible for authoring reports and publications related to the project research, and pursue own research agenda.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
