Biography

I obtained my PhD in Computer Sciences and Mathematics from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1995. I have been a postdoc at Eng Sci at Auckland as well as Argonne National Labs (USA).

My research broadly falls in the area of Operations Research and Mathematical Programming. The primary focus of my research is developing mathematical programming and equilibrium models related to all participants in an electricity market. These problems often include uncertainty as a feature. For further information about my research area please take a look at Electric Power Optimization Centre. My recent publications on electricity can be downloaded from the Electric Power Optimization Centre publications list.
