Founder and Lead Researcher, CIBER Lab

The Connected Informatics and Built Environment Research (CIBER) Lab at TAMU consists of a group of motivated researchers with vested interest in and passion for transforming the current state of knowledge and practice in construction and urban systems through design, validation, and implementation of innovative methods in artificial intelligence, data sensing and analytics, adaptive simulation, and visualization.

Founder and Lead Investigator, Urban.AI Lab

The Artifical Intelligence and Built Environment Lab (Urban.AI Lab) is housed at the Center for Infrastructure Renewal (CIR) on TAMU RELLIS campus. With a primary focus on human-aware AI/ML, researchers in the Urban.AI Lab contribute innovative methods, data, and engineering systems that improve human life and promote the effective and responsible collaboration between humans and technology in areas such as disaster resilience, drone analytics, infrastructure performance, and safety and ergonomics.

Past Chair, ASCE Computing Division VIMS Committee

The goal of the Visualization, Information Modeling, and Simulation (VIMS) Committee is to promote the use of databases and information management technologies in civil engineering teaching and practice, study the representation, management, storage, and retrieval of civil engineering information, product and process modeling, data/object/knowledge repositories and interoperability standards, and information infrastructure issues.

Associate Editor, SASBE

The Journal of Smart and Sustainable Built Environment (SASBE) is published by Emerald. SASBE aims to identify and promote research and practice that connect innovation and sustainability, through highlighting holistic problem-solving and decision-making, collaborative system and product development, and innovative solutions. It also gives emphasis to international collaboration, emerging challenges, developing economies, and knowledge transfer to businesses and industries.

Specialty Editor, ASCE JCEM

The ASCE Journal of Construction Engineering and Management (JCEM) publishes papers that aim to advance the onstruction science, harmonize construction practices with design theories, and further education and research in construction. Topics include material handling, equipment, production planning, specifications, scheduling, estimating, cost and quality control, labor productivity, inspection, contracts, computer applications, and environmental concerns.

Chair, 2019 ASCE I3CE Technical Committee

The 2019 ASCE International Conference on Computing in Civil Engineering (I3CE) will be hosted by Georgia Tech in Atlanta, and will feature scientific contributions in all emerging areas of computing in civil engineering including but not limited to visualization, information modeling, process simulation, reality capture, human-technology frontier and computing, big data and machine learning, robotics and automation, and ontologies.
