Research
My research is motivated by the following overreaching question:
How can we create mechanisms to understand, anticipate, and promote the disruption of Enterprise AI and its effects on how corporations think, work, and collaborate?
I believe the challenges of disruptive innovation around Enterprise's intelligence and collaboration will demand new ways to understand the multi-agent knowledge flows, and AI-centric operational model. This involves new architecture design and methods to promote collaboration and integration.
Research areas: Enterprise AI, Collective Intelligence, Social Computing, Distributed Computing.
