Biography

Professor Douglas Creighton is Professor of Systems Engineering and the Director of the Institute for Intelligent Systems Research and Innovation (IISRI) at Deakin University.

Prof. Creighton was part of the leadership team that formed IISRI in 2006, where he established its globally recognised Modelling and Simulation research program, one of the institute’s two core research programs, which he continues to lead today.

He is an internationally recognised voice in modelling and simulation research and has made signification research contributions and impact across the manufacturing, transport and defence sectors in agent-based modelling and simulation, computational intelligence and learning algorithms and systems thinking.

Prof. Creighton’s research focuses both on theory and application of modelling and simulation to further understanding, generate insight and support decision making in complex engineered systems. He has completed numerous projects over the last 20 years across automotive, aerospace, and rail manufacturing, delivering productivity, sustainability and reliability benefits.
