Research interests
I have been an active member of the international evolutionary computation and optimisation community for the past twenty years. In that time, I have produced over 90 peer reviewed works, including books, journal articles, book chapters and conference papers. Apart from that, I have organised and chaired a number of conferences and workshops as well as supervised students at a masters and doctoral level.
My current interests focus on real-world applications of evolutionary computation (particularly in the area of long term crop planning under climate change) as well as the algorithmic mechanics of heuristic search techniques.
