    Biography

    Ernesto Mastrocinque is Senior Lecturer at the School of Mechanical Engineering, in the Faculty of Engineering, Environment and Computing, at Coventry University. Prior to joining Coventry University, he was Research Fellow at the School of Management of Royal Holloway, University of London, working on the development of a decision-making model for strengthening the UK composite materials supply chain. He has also been Research Fellow at the Department of Industrial Engineering of University of Salerno (Italy) and Visiting Researcher at the School of Engineering of Cardiff University, where he worked on the development and application of nature-inspired algorithms for supply chain network design and optimisation.

    Ernesto's research interests include decision-making and optimisation for manufacturing and supply chain. He has conducted research on multi-objective supply chain network optimisation, supplier and technology selection, scheduling, manufacturing process optimisation, nature-inspired optimisation algorithms. He has developed different methodologies based on meta-heuristics, nature-inspired optimisation algorithms, multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) analysis, machine learning techniques and fuzzy logic. He is currently focused on Industry 4.0 and sustainability related issues.

    His research work has been published in a number of journals including Computers & Industrial Engineering (Elsevier), Expert Systems with Applications (Elsevier), IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management (IEEE), Journal of Engineering and Technology Management (Elsevier), Production Planning & Control (Taylor & Francis), Swarm and Evolutionary Computation (Elsevier), Technological Forecasting and Social Change (Elsevier).
