Efficient Process Operations
Equipment
failure and human error lead to abnormal situations in chemical plants
that could have catastrophic consequences. We are developing automated
systems that assist process engineers and operators run chemical
plants efficiently. [More]
Environmentally Benign Process Design
Stringent
regulations and competition have challenged process industries to bring
products to market at low lifecycle costs without compromising on safety and
environmental standards. We are developing tools and techniques to automate
safety and waste minimization
analysis. [More]
Business Decision Support
Supply
chain improvements can significantly impact the bottom line in all
enterprises. Our research in this area would enable companies to model,
monitor and manage their supply chain networks.

Computational Systems Biology
Recent advances in the life sciences have
motivated the paradigm of biological systems. The understanding of
the building
blocks of life - DNA, RNA, proteins, cells, and tissues - and their interactions
is essential to predicting and preventing diseases. Our research aims to develop
computational approaches to the modeling and analysis of biological systems
