I received my Civ.Ing. (M.Sc.) in Computer Science and Engineering from the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in 1992, my Civ.Ek. in Economics and Business Administration from the Stockholm Business School at Stockholm University (SU) in 1994, and my Tekn.Dr. (Ph.D.) in Computer and Systems Sciences from KTH in 1997. I became an Associate Professor (Docent) in 2004 and a Full Professor in 2007 at Stockholm University.
I have, together with Prof. Love Ekenberg, in 1994 founded the DECIDE Research Group, which was the leading research network in decision theory and analysis in Scandinavia, and headed it for more than 15 years. I have written over 200 peer-reviewed research papers, books and book chapters on decision-making, risk and decision analysis, and decision and optimisation algorithms. Some of the ideas have also been developed as software products (Helision, DecideIT, and POLA). The DECIDE Research Group was in 2023 merged with the energy optimisation researchers at the department to form the Risk and Decision Analysis unit.
