Dr. Corinthias P. M. SIANIPAR specializes in complex systems analysis (Systems Thinking, QUANTITATIVE: System Dynamics, Agent-Based Modeling, Discrete-Event Simulation, Graph Theory, Interpretative Structural Modeling, Stochastic Optimizations; QUALITATIVE: Drama Theory, Critical System Heuristics, Serious Games, Soft System Methodology), technological appropriateness (Socio-Technical Systems, Appropriate Technology, Design Thinking), and life-cycle assessment (Life-Cycle Assessment, Social Life-Cycle Assessment, Circular Economy) within the science-to-policy-to-action framework. A versatile scholar trained in both engineering and social science educations, he has more than ten years of experience in delivering systemic and systematic socio-technical solutions for different development contexts. He combines computational modeling and qualitative analysis to pursue an "adequate fit of innovation" for empowering vulnerable societal groups (communities, organizations, governments, etc.) in developed and developing countries having technical inadequacy, lacking economic resources, suffering environmental constraints, and experiencing social confrontations.
