Dr. Narayanan is Dean of the College of Engineering and Computer Science at Wright State University and is Executive Director of the Wright State Research Institute. He has executed research projects of over $20 million on interactive simulations, information analysis, systems analysis, and human computer interaction from a variety of sponsors including the Air Force Office of Scientific Research, the Air Force Research Laboratory, Ohio Board of Regents, Intel, Lexis-Nexis, and other industries. His research interests are in the area of modeling human cognition in context and designing interactive systems to aid humans in performing cognitively complex tasks such as planning, information retrieval and synthesis, and troubleshooting. His research has an interdisciplinary thrust with the following themes: cognition, computational representation, interactivity, and application. He has published over 100 technical articles, including two books on modeling and simulation and was Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics, the International Journal of Modeling and Simulation, and Transactions of the Society for Computer Simulation. He is a Fellow of the American Institute of Medicine and Biology in Engineering. He received the Outstanding Engineering and Scientist Award for Education from the Affiliates Societies Council in 2008 and Outstanding Faculty Member Award from WSU in 2003.
