Organization(s):

Arizona State University

Associate Professor Hessam Sarjoughian joined ASU in fall 2001. He is co-director of the Arizona Center for Integrative Modeling & Simulation (ACIMS). His research at ASU has been funded by NSF, Lockheed Martin, Intel, DISA, and Boeing. Sarjoughian’s professional experience has been with IBM and Honeywell.

Sarjoughian’s research focuses on modeling frameworks that support specification of composable and scaleable simulation and software models. His main areas of research are multi-formalism modeling, hybrid SW/HW system modeling, collaborative model development, distributed simulation and software design. His educational aim is to help M&S become a discipline.

CHANS Projects:

The Emergence of Coupled Natural and Human Landscapes in the Western Mediterranean

Mediterranean Landscape Dynamics Project (Proposal title: Land-Use and Landscape Socioecology in the Mediterranean Basin: A Natural Laboratory for the Study of the Long-Term Interaction of Human and Natural Systems)

Sponsors

National Science Foundation (NSF) - The only federal agency whose mission includes support for all fields of fundamental science and engineering, except for medical sciences. We are tasked with keeping the United States at the leading edge of discovery in areas from astronomy to geology to zoology. So, in addition to funding research in the traditional academic areas, the agency also supports "high-risk, high pay-off" ideas, novel collaborations and numerous projects that may seem like science fiction today, but which the public will take for granted tomorrow.

Center for Systems Integration and Sustainability, Michigan State University - A center of excellence that integrates ecology with socioeconomics, demography, and other disciplines for ecological sustainability from local, national, to global scales.

Global Land Project - A joint research project for land systems in the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme and the International Human Dimensions Programme.

About CHANS-Net

Coupled human and natural systems (CHANS) are integrated systems in which humans and natural components interact. CHANS research has recently emerged as an exciting and integrative field of cross-disciplinary scientific inquiry, with research projects covering a variety of coupled systems in locations spanning the globe. Although individual projects have generated many important insights, it is essential to systematically transform the field to be more than the sum of its parts and provide broader insights of greater scientific and societal significance than those resulting from individual projects alone. The goal of CHANS-Net is to foster this transformation by facilitating communication and collaboration among members of the CHANS research community.
