Dr. Hamed Aboutorab is a Lecturer in the School of Business at UNSW Canberra, with a research focus on the application of artificial intelligence (AI) within supply chain management, risk analysis, and organisational resilience. His research addresses the challenges of modern supply chains, developing AI-driven models to identify, assess, and mitigate potential risks to enhance operational agility and stability. By integrating data analytics, machine learning, and decision-support systems, Hamed’s work explores strategies to support efficiency, cost savings, and adaptability in complex environments. Hamed’s research contributions have been published in prominent journals, including Expert Systems with Applications, Journal of Network and Computer Applications, and Future Generation Computer Systems, contributing to the growing field of AI applications within logistics and risk management.
