Dr.
Ören
is a professor emeritus of
computer science at the School of Electrical
Engineering and Computer Science of the University of Ottawa,
Canada. He has been involved with simulation since 1965. Dr.
Ören’s
Ph.D. is in Systems
Engineering from the University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ (The
first systems engineering academic
program in the USA).
His basic education is from Galatasaray Lisesi, a high school
founded in his native Istanbul in 1481 and in Mechanical
Engineering at the Technical University of Istanbul
founded in 1773.
His
research interests include advanced methodologies for modeling and
simulation,
including
taxonomies and ontologies,
artificial intelligence (AI and simulation, AI and software
engineering), agent-directed simulation, agents for cognitive and emotive simulations, representations of human personality and emotions,
understanding, awareness;
reliability, QA, failure avoidance, ethics, body of knowledge, terminology,
and
Turkish.
He has over 600
publications (over 300 after his early retirement), including 66
books and proceedings. Some of his publications are translated in Chinese,
German and Turkish.
He has
contributed to over 500
conferences and seminars held in over 30 countries (over 300 after his early
retirement). He has been a visiting professor in Austria,
Brazil, China, France, Italy, Spain, The Netherlands, and
Turkey.
Dr.
Ören, a
fellow of SCS,
received numerous
awards,
honors, and other distinctions such as
SCS Modeling and Simulation Hall of Fame (Lifetime
Achievement Award), as well as
plaques and
certificates of appreciation from organizations including
ACM, AECL, AFCEA, NATO, some universities, and Turkish General
Staff.
