Dr. R. Paul

As a professional electronics and software engineer, system developer, tester, and evaluator for the past 26 years, Dr. Paul has held many positions in the field of software engineering. Currently, Dr. Paul serves as the technical director for command and control (C2) Policy. In this position, Dr. Paul manages network enabled command and control systems engineering development for objective, quantitative and qualitative measurements. Dr. Paul’s current research focus is on a dynamic integrated theoretic approach to C2 networks from multiple levels from dyadic to global. Understanding multiple concepts, theories at multiple levels along with attributes of nodes and the links may provide insight to better understand C2 organizational networks that are created, maintained, and reconstituted. Lastly, Dr Paul is developing a methodology for dynamic environment decision making pertaining to real time data from sensors, software/systems and related processes and the risk identification and management framework that includes internal and external variabilities. Dr. Paul holds a doctorate in software engineering and is an active “Fellow” member of the IEEE Computer Society and SDPS. He has published chapter in 4 books and more than 84 articles on software engineering in various technical journals and symposia proceedings, primarily under DoD and IEEE sponsorship. He has authored chapters in 4 technical books concerning software engineering.
