Summary

Dr Eldabi’s research is focusing on ways of using simulation modelling to support business process management – both in the private sector and the public sector. Mainly looking at using simulation to understand the problems that face decision makers and facilitate ownership and intercommunication.  He co-investigates in over £1 Million worth project.
