SCIN 603 Management of Infrastructure Systems
Infrastructure systems, such as transportation systems, telecommunication systems and electric power systems, have become a crucial component of modern society. This course will apply techniques of risk assessment and decision making under uncertainty in all phases of the infrastructure life cycle to better manage these systems. Emphasis is placed on the planning and design phases since these are most relevant to the region with particular attention to the Abu Dhabi 2030 Economic Vision. The course will also introduce concepts of system reliability, optimization, resilience, and flexibility to uncertainty using real options analysis. Course material will be drawn from textbooks, research papers, and instructor notes.
