Martijn Warnier

I am an Associate Professor in, and the Head of, the Section Systems Engineering - Mult-Actor Systems Department - Faculty of Technology, Policy and Management - Delft University of Technology. I'm also a member of the Participatory Systems initiative, the Powerweb initiative and the research school SIKS.

Research

My research focuses on self-management of large scale socio-technical systems, in particular infrastructures such as the power grid, computer networks or logistic networks. I study both operational aspects, such as robustness, resilience, efficiency and reliability, but also other aspects such as empowerment, security and privacy of users. I believe that, in general, the really interesting research challenges can only be solved by truly multidisciplinary research that combines expertise from researchers with a variety of academic backgrounds.

Several application domains are central in my research: the energy domain, distributed networks such as cloud computing and sensor networks, and green ICT. The societal impact of trust and privacy and security is studied in a wide context, ranging from agent based systems to cloud and grid computing.

Most of my research is funded by external projects (NWO/STW/EU-FP7) in collaboration with other academic and industrial partners.
