Integrated Energy Decision Support System

Client

Center for Complex Engineering Systems ( MIT - Massachusetts Institute of Technology & King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology)

Role

Research Specialist, Requirements Engineer 

Challenge

The Integrated Energy Decision Support System (IEDSS) is designed to facilitate a collaborative decision making process between multiple stakeholders and capture the complex interactions and effects of one stakeholder’s decision on others as well as the power industry as a whole. In addition, IEDSS will help decision makers explore the possible energy mixes, through rapid prototyping of possible “what if” scenarios, of both conventional and renewable technologies in order to meet the future growing energy demands of the kingdom. IEDSS employs the concept of “serious gaming” by running simulations of real-world scenarios used for strategizing and problem solving.

Process

Due to the nature of the research, I could not share more information about it. However, I wrote this article which contains more about the work I have done as well as the team I worked with.
