ECMS 2019, 33rd ECMS International Conference on Modelling and Simulation, Caserta, Napoli, Italy May / June 2019

Dr. Alexander H. Levis is University Professor of Electrical, Computer, and Systems Engineering in the Volgenau School of Engineering, George Mason University, Fairfax, VA, USA. From 2001 to 2004 he served as the Chief Scientist of the U.S. Air Force. He was educated at Ripon College where he received the AB degree (1963) in Mathematics and Physics and then at MIT where he received the BS (1963), MS (1965), ME (1967), and Sc.D. (1968) degrees in Mechanical Engineering with control systems as his area of specialization. For the last fifteen years, his areas of research have been multi-formalism modeling to address national security strategic issues, architecture design and evaluation for decision making organizations, and resilient architecture design. Dr. Levis is a Life Fellow of IEEE, a Fellow of AAAS, and INCOSE, and an Associate Fellow of AIAA. He served for many years on science and technology advisory committees of units of the federal government. He has over 290 publications documenting his research.

Title of his talk

“Modeling and Simulation of Organizational Architectures”

Andrea Bobbio

University of Piemonte Orientale "Amedeo Avogadro", Italy

Andrea Bobbio is professor of Computer Science at the Università del Piemonte Orientale in Alessandria, Italy, since 2001. He graduated from Politecnico di Torino in 1969, and then joined the Istituto Elettrotecnico Nazionale Galileo Ferraris in Torino (the Italian Metrology Institute). In 1992, he become Associate Professor of Computer Science at the University of Brescia, and in 1995 he moved to the University of Torino. His research activity focuses on the modeling and analysis of the performance and reliability of stochastic systems, with particular interest in the study of aggregation techniques in large and stiff Markov chains, in the analysis of non-Markovian systems and in network reliability. He contributed to the study of heterogeneous modeling techniques for dependable systems, ranging from combinatorial techniques to Bayesian belief networks, to state-space based techniques and Markovian agent models. Bobbio was visiting scholar in various universities and he is senior member of IEEE. He published about 200 papers and he is coauthor with K. Trivedi of the book Reliability and Availability Engineering: Modeling, Analysis, and Applications, Cambridge University Press, 2017, Pages 726. www.cambridge.org/9781107099500.
