He is on the Editorial Board of the Journal of Manufacturing Technology Management. He has over 140 publications including 27 books. He has extensive experience of working with organisations in the public and private sectors in the area of developing discrete-event simulation models in commercial software such as Arena and Simio. Details of his simulation projects can be found in the practitioner book ‘Simulating Business Processes for Descriptive, Predictive and Prescriptive Analytics’ published by DeGruyter in the USA in 2019.

He has supervised DBA and PhD students to completion and has been an internal and external DBA and PhD examiner. He is interested in supervising PhD and DBA students and undertaking consultancy in the public and private sectors in the following areas of application:

• Simulation models which implement machine learning approaches such as reinforcement learning
• Simulation models which implement digital twins of processes
• Simulation models which model aspects of human behaviour
• Simulation models which model agent-based systems
