Ali's research deals with the interdisciplinary issues of developing and managing complex engineering systems. This research is motivated by a lack of formal Product Development (PD) models in the engineering/operations management literature and practice. His research concentrates on this gap by using quantitative techniques [based on optimization theory, linear systems theory, and stochastic modeling] to formulate and analyze an emerging set of product development (PD) problems, including the management of iteration, overlapping decisions, system decomposition & integration, and information technology enabled PD.  Learn more
