TEES Annual Research Conference Collaborations
At the 2019 TEES Annual Research Conference, researchers came together to create seven multi-institution collaborations and pitched them to a panel of judges at the end of the conference. TEES awarded $20,000 for the first place collaboration, provided $5,000 in seed funding to two second place collaborations and $2,500 in seed funding to each of the for additional collaborations.
2019 Collaboration Awards
$2,500 Awards
Effect of Size, Shape and Atomic Ratio on Intensity of Fluorescence in Quantum Dots
Team members: Saravanan Ramasamy, Angelo State University, and Hye Jung Kang, Texas A&M-Texarkana
Quantum dots are bimetallic, light-emitting semiconductor nanoparticles that are used in bio-imaging, photovoltaics, and LEDs. This project will identify ways to improve the quantum yield (brightness) of quantum dots by establishing a correlation between the atomic ratio in the quantum dots composition and the intensity of light emission. The goal is to provide a better signal in bio-imaging.
Electrification Infrastructure for Autonomous Vehicles
Team members: Marty Yaqub, Texas A&M University-Commerce; Deepak Ganta, Texas A&M International University; Huseyin Bostana, University of North Texas; Zahra Pournorouz, Tarleton State University; Yuhao Xu, Prairie View A&M University
Currently there is no viable and affordable infrastructure to electrify autonomous vehicles. The team will explore a novel approach in converging emerging technologies in aesthetic PV shingles, lithium-ion energy storage, and 5G at strategic charging locations resulting in clean energy, clean air and the ability to travel long distances.
Innovative Approach for Using Artificial Intelligence Toward Sustainable Energy
Team members: Emmanuel Dada and Safuat H. Shakir, Prairie View A&M University; Patrick Carter and Sojung Kim, Texas A&M University-Commerce; Manuel Garcia, Angelo State University
This team will develop a novel chemical process control approach using artificial intelligence—particularly agent-based simulation (ABS) with machine learning with machine learning to generate a cost-efficient control policy regarding crude oil distillation processes.
Social Perception of Green Infrastructure for Flood Erosion Control
Team members: Aldo P. Villarreal, Angelo State University; Dale Cope, Texas A&M University; Zhenhua Huang, University of North Texas; Perry Moler, Texas A&M University-Commerce; Hua Zhang, Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi
Climate change results in more frequent flooding and erosion of earthen channels in underdeveloped storm infrastructure, but the use of green infrastructure may face public resistance. The team will model public perception and the use of green technology to reduce water erosion in San Angelo, Texas.

IISE OR Division Undergraduate Student Research Dissemination Award
GOAL: The goal of this award is to recognize scholarly work as well as ability to effectively communicate results from an undergraduate student or student team.
ELIGIBILITY: The first author of the paper must be a full-time undergraduate student at the time of submission. The paper must present original research conducted while the applicant was a student.
PROCESS: The winner is decided based both on their written paper and their oral presentation. Finalists are selected before ISERC, but the winner is determined at ISERC.
PRIZES: All finalists received cash prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in the amounts of $400, $200, and $100 respectively!
SPONSORS: This year the award was jointly sponsored by the University of Arkansas and Rochester Institute of Technology.
VOLUNTEER JUDGES: Many thanks to this year’s judges: Omar Aponte, Vishnunarayan Girishan Prabhu, and Zhijie (Sasha) Dong.
CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR 2019 STUDENT WINNERS!

Sojung Kim Wins 2nd Place
Tuesday, September 16, 2014
Sojung Kim
Sojung Kim, a doctoral student of the UA SIE supervised by Dr. Son, has received the 2nd place award in the doctoral colloquium scientific poster competition at the IIE Annual Meeting 2014 in Montreal, Canada, for his work, entitled “Dynamic Learning and Human Interactions under the Extend BDI Framework for Transportation Systems”. The doctoral colloquium and poster competition are sponsored by the Council of Industrial Engineering Academic Department Heads (CIEADH). Former doctoral students in Dr. Son’s lab have received the same award in 2008 as well as 2009.
