Research Interests

I am leading the Dynamic Project Management (DPM) Group at the University of Michigan, which aims to understand and manage construction dynamics and human-infrastructure interface through sensing, data analytics and computer simulation. Particularly, DPM is interested in achieving the maximum benefit from technologies like wearables, automation and robotics for humans in construction and infrastructure. DPM also applies these technologies to direct smart and connected communities and cities toward social equality. For more information, please visit: http://dpm.engin.umich.edu.
