| Asst Prof Arvind Easwaran | Cyber-Physical Systems encompass systems in which the cyber world of computation and communication closely interacts with the physical world of sensors and actuators. These are highly networked and deeply embedded systems such as those found in modern day aircrafts, automotives, factories, medical devices, smart phones, electric grids, etc. From driver-less cars and air traffic management using sense and avoid, to plug-and-play operating rooms and smart electric grids that integrate traditional and renewable energy sources, intelligent automation of an enormous scale is finding its way into many of these systems.
My current research interests are in the areas of design and verification of cyber-physical software systems, especially in the design and analysis of systems with time-critical functionalities (i.e., real-time software systems). These include (but are not limited to):
Real-time scheduling algorithms that are provably efficient.

Visual Effects as a aesthetic and narrative device in film
Development of new animation and visual effects relevant techniques
Animation and Visual Effects specific project management systems
Immersive media experiences such as 360 degree films, Virtual Reality (VR) and stereoscopic film
My current research interests in the field of animation, visual effects and interactive are particularly in these three areas:
1) The role of visual effects as an aesthetic and narrative device in film-making
2) The exploration of immersive technologies such as stereoscopy, dome projections and virtual reality applications
3) The development of software tools to support the production process of visual effects at universities and small to medium size (SME) studios
These specific interests have evolved organically from my previous research projects and my animation practice as visual effects artist and supervisor.
Through my experience in the visual effects industry, I have identified a lack of tools supporting the production process of complex visual effects at universities and small to medium size studio teams. The aim of my research is to develop solutions to fill this gap in form of software tools, which could potentially be used by other universities in the field of art and media. |

| Dr Mukta Bansal | Title : Multi Agent Modeling to Supply Chain Management
Chemical Industries supply chain are unlike other industries supply chain due to specific features such as longer chains, complex transportation process, large inventory, complex manufacturing process, etc. These features of the chemical supply chain pose challenges to its effective management. The multi-agent approach is suitable for modeling the behavior of such supply chains as it can capture the dynamics and complexity of the supply chain and in a comprehensive and extendable fashion.
Significance: We develop an agent-based framework (G2-MADE) to model the functions, activities, and dynamics of the supply chain in its normal as well as disrupted states. This agent-based framework lends itself to decision support required in the face of exogenous supply chain disturbances such as ship delays, demand changes, etc. We also evaluate different business processes and supply chain configurations enabling well-rounded decisions related both to the structure and parameters of the supply chain.
Title : Sourcing and Supply Contracts Selection Strategy in Supply Chain Planning
A multinational company’s purchases go well beyond basic raw materials; they include catalysts, indirect materials, additives, etc. Strategic sourcing contracts offer several advantages and are common practice in many industries, especially the chemical industry. However, contracts come in various shades of price, commitments, duration, terms, flexibility, lead-time, quality, discounts, product bundling, etc. Selecting the best contracts and suppliers for a company’s globally distributed sites in an integrated and global business environment can be nontrivial.
Significance: We propose a relatively comprehensive classification of material supply contracts and propose a multi-period mathematical programming model that selects optimal contracts for the minimum total procurement cost in the face of several practical considerations such as different contract types, multi-tier prices and discounts, logistics and inventory costs, quantity/dollar purchase commitments, spot market, product bundling, etc. Our examples demonstrate substantial savings over ad hoc or heuristic methods.
Title : Outsourcing and Selection of Third-Party Logistics Contracts
Logistics costs in the chemical and related industries are among the highest in asset-intensive supply chains. Having managed the intraplant logistics well for years, companies are now looking for ways to lower the cost of enterprise-wide logistics by increasingly outsourcing a variety of logistics services to third-party logistics firm globally.
Significance: We present a systematic framework for managing chemical logistics in an integrated manner. It is a novel approach to represent logistics tasks in terms of recipes and recipe superstructures. Using this representation, we develop a mixed-integer linear programming formulation to fulfill the logistics needs of a global enterprise in terms of 3PL contracts and in-house execution. The goal is to obtain the contracts, and thus the 3PLs, that serve the total needs of a company in an integrated manner and with the minimum cost. |

| Dr Owen Noel Newton Fernando | My research primarily focuses on novel interfaces and interactive systems to provide seamless, intuitive, and immersive user experiences. In doing so, I employ the formal method of design thinking to generate innovative solutions for complex problems, based on a user-centered approach with multi-disciplinary teams. The interactive systems I have developed have involved collaboration with professional designers and digital artists in Singapore, Japan, and India. Equally importantly, these innovations have also involved multidisciplinary engagement with experts from academia, industry, and the policy sectors. This approach has resulted in innovative interfaces and interactive systems that are not only cutting edge in terms of technology, but also those that bear long-lasting value to community and the issues they confront. Focusing on usability, researchers in information visualization and HCI often rely on well-known rules to inform the design of visual interfaces and endow with less attention to artistic qualities of a design product, such as imagination, inspiration from social trends, and aesthetics.My experience has revealed that if we combine the traditional approach of incremental research with methodologies, models and modeling practices from art and design, we can often produce novel research hypotheses that lead to new ideas and innovation.
One of the main goals of my work is to increase the role of interactive systems in the day-to-day life of people by encouraging and facilitating user engagement. I try to design natural interfaces and interactive devices that are easy to learn and pleasant to use, improving the data exploration process and facilitating the communication of insights. I will continue exploring how direct manipulation through natural interfaces, digital and tangible controls, aesthetic design and metaphors could best improve user experience when users interact with digital media. Researchers have shown that a more intuitive, engaging and captivating user interface will not only improve the effectiveness of the system, but also it boosts the productivity of users. To develop such natural interfaces and interactive systems, there are fundamental and theoretical issues that must be addressed. Hence, the research issues need to be examined through a combination of engineering, design, and human computer interface studies. |

The development of architectures that supports on-line and off-line learning fuzzy intelligent rule based systems is examined. The research issues cover fuzzy clustering, learning, modeling, fuzzy rule model, etc. These basic techniques are used to craft the brain-inspired memory learning systems. These memory learning structures are the building blocks of the functional neuro-cognitive brain and they can be broadly classified into huppocampal global semantic memories and neocortical like semantic association memories. In addition, research into CMAC and in-house developed MCMACs and Fuzzy MCMACs are actively pursued. They form a class of cerebellar like association memories that have excellent memory resolution and recall.

| Assoc Prof Tan Soon Keat | Dr Tan's research interests include application of geographical information system (GIS) in water resources, numerical simulation of flow for hydraulics and coastal engineering applications. His current research projects include hydrodynamic consideration of mega underwater structures and application of wetland technologies in the removal of pharmaceutical products from wastewater streams.
Dr Tan specilaises in urban water management and has developed the catchment – drainage GIS map of NTU campus. The GIS map is designed to facilitate rainfall-runoff modeling as well as water quality modeling. While rainfall-runoff modelling is generally well-established, water quality modeling is not, especially in the estimate of the source concentration of the pollutants. Current research focus in the community is in the establishment of the total nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorous (TP) in rainwater runoff. The difficulty lies in the fact that TN and TP varies with time, space as well as the intensity of rainfall. Dr Tan has a PhD project on TN and TP as contaminant in rainwater runoff.
Removal of water-borne contaminant, particularly trace quantity of drugs and pharmaceutical products from waste-water streams is a challenge in the management of water resources, and in particular, raw water for water supply. A viable and feasible solution is to employ wetland technology as a means to remove these contaminants. Under the supervision of Dr Tan, a research team is carrying out a series of constructed wetlands experiments with raw water spiked with selected contaminants. The research work has produced meaningful results since its inception in 2009.
Currently Dr Tan is leading a research team to conduct research on the various hydrodynamics considerations for a mega underwater structure, looking at the effects of flow, wave and environmental loads on a single or group of surface protruding structures. The research team comprises 10 research fellows. The challenge of the project is that the structure is to be founded on the seabed, with living space on the seabed, or supported on legs or semi-submersible, and the columns also support a deck space above the water, making full use of the 3-dimensional space. The structure has to be of mega-size to make it economically viable. As such, the environmental loads, impact of flow and waves takes on a different dimension compared to a land-based structure or oil platforms. Of particular significance is the possibility of vortex-induced-vibrations, as well as trapping or building up of waves within the group of structures. Later research work includes selection of potential site for the construction of a pilot structure as well as the effects of such structure on seabed sedimentation, ecology as well as its impact on the environment. |

| Asst Prof Xia Kelin | Dr. Kelin Xia's research focuses on three aspects: mathematical modeling of biomolecule, topological data analysis and elliptic interface problem. The first subject of his research is to construct multiscale geometric models based on the variational multiscale theory. With these models, the features of biomolecular surface and structure can be characterized and quantitatively analyzed. Further, these models can be used in the study of surface visualization, protein-protein interaction, drug design, protein flexibility, and protein folding.
Topological data analysis is his recent interest. For the first time, he applies persistent homology in the analysis of fullerene molecule properties, i.e., topological structure, heat formation energy, and isomer stability. He utilizes persistent homology for protein rigidity, flexibility and folding analysis. He proposes a multidimensional persistence scheme and a multiresolution topological simplification method, and further applied both in excessively large biomolecular data analysis.
The last subject belongs to scientific computation. A major emphasis of his research is to design robust and highly accurate schemes specifically for the elliptic interface problem from the realistic biological setting. In general, challenges come from the complex geometry originated from complicated biomolecular structure. |
