&lt;br /&gt;
=== My CSSS-&#039;07 Interests and Goals===&lt;br /&gt;
* Interested in the courses on non-linear dynamics, modeling (including agent-based), computational complexity, finance, economics, pattern recognition, and markets&lt;br /&gt;
* Really interested in SFI&#039;s work on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complexity_economics complexity economics]. &lt;br /&gt;
* Interesting in hearing about lots of interesting ideas and meet lots of interesting people&lt;br /&gt;
* Would like to cquire some new ways of thinking about problems (esp. related to my work)&lt;br /&gt;
* Hope to learn more about complexity theory, complexity science, complexity economics, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Candidate Project/Paper Ideas===&lt;br /&gt;
* I work with very large, very complex, systems that include technical and non-technical participants.  They span organizations, borders and time.  Established engineering and management practices don&#039;t actually seem to guide them all that well and it is in our social interest that they function properly.  I&#039;m interested to learn, think and write about ideas that help us thrive amidst this chaos.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Potentially Useful Skills===&lt;br /&gt;
* Very strong, expert-level, at UML and using the dominant UML tools (&#039;&#039;e.g.&#039;&#039;  [http://www-306.ibm.com/software/awdtools/developer/rose/index.html Rational Rose(tm)]) for modeling technical and non-technical systems. &lt;br /&gt;
* Basic skills at using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytic_Hierarchy_Process Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP)] including using [http://www.expertchoice.com/ ExpertChoice].&lt;br /&gt;
* Current reading material includes [http://aima.cs.berkeley.edu/  Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach] but mostly for the chapters on constraints. &lt;br /&gt;
* Fairly good technical and business audience writer. &lt;br /&gt;
* Decent programmer in C++, Java, XML, etc. and using a variety of info-worker tools (Project, Excel, MindMap, etc.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Documents ===&lt;br /&gt;

* Interested in the courses on non-linear dynamics, modeling (including agent-based), computational complexity, finance, economics, pattern recognition, and markets&lt;br /&gt;
* Really interested in SFI&#039;s work on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complexity_economics complexity economics]. &lt;br /&gt;
* Interesting in hearing about lots of interesting ideas and meet lots of interesting people&lt;br /&gt;
* Would like to cquire some new ways of thinking about problems (esp. related to my work)&lt;br /&gt;
* Hope to learn more about complexity theory, complexity science, complexity economics, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Candidate Project/Paper Ideas===&lt;br /&gt;
* I work with very large, very complex, systems that include technical and non-technical participants.  They span organizations, borders and time.  Established engineering and management practices don&#039;t actually seem to guide them all that well and it is in our social interest that they function properly.  I&#039;m interested to learn, think and write about ideas that help us thrive amidst this chaos.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Potentially Useful Skills===&lt;br /&gt;
* Very strong, expert-level, at UML and using the dominant UML tools (&#039;&#039;e.g.&#039;&#039;  [http://www-306.ibm.com/software/awdtools/developer/rose/index.html Rational Rose(tm)]) for modeling technical and non-technical systems. &lt;br /&gt;
* Basic skills at using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytic_Hierarchy_Process Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP)] including using [http://www.expertchoice.com/ ExpertChoice].&lt;br /&gt;
* Current reading material includes [http://aima.cs.berkeley.edu/  Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach] but mostly for the chapters on constraints. &lt;br /&gt;
* Fairly good technical and business audience writer. &lt;br /&gt;
* Decent programmer in C++, Java, XML, etc. and using a variety of info-worker tools (Project, Excel, MindMap, etc.)&lt;br /&gt;

===My Background===&lt;br /&gt;
* My professional bio ([[Media:BLawler_bio_v10-01a.pdf‎‎|pdf]])&lt;br /&gt;
* My resume ([[Media:BLawler_Resume_v10-03a.pdf‎ ‎|pdf]])&lt;br /&gt;
* Masters, Engineering, Johns Hopkins University, 2002&lt;br /&gt;
* Bachelors, Political Science, University of Colorado, 1984&lt;br /&gt;
* [http://www.mitre.org/about/ffrdcs/cem.html Center for Enterprise Modernization] (CEM), MITRE, 2003-present&lt;br /&gt;
** CEM is a Federally Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC). Most of my work is devoted to enterprise modernization efforts in the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== My CSSS-&#039;07 Interests and Goals===&lt;br /&gt;
* Interested in the courses on non-linear dynamics, modeling (including agent-based), computational complexity, finance, economics, pattern recognition, and markets&lt;br /&gt;
* Really interested in SFI&#039;s work on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complexity_economics complexity economics]. &lt;br /&gt;
* Interesting in hearing about lots of interesting ideas and meet lots of interesting people&lt;br /&gt;
* Would like to cquire some new ways of thinking about problems (esp. related to my work)&lt;br /&gt;
* Hope to learn more about complexity theory, complexity science, complexity economics, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Candidate Project/Paper Ideas===&lt;br /&gt;
* I work with very large, very complex, systems that include technical and non-technical participants.  They span organizations, borders and time.  Established engineering and management practices don&#039;t actually seem to guide them all that well and it is in our social interest that they function properly.  I&#039;m interested to learn, think and write about ideas that help us thrive amidst this chaos.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Potentially Useful Skills===&lt;br /&gt;
* Very strong, expert-level, at UML and using the dominant UML tools (&#039;&#039;e.g.&#039;&#039;  [http://www-306.ibm.com/software/awdtools/developer/rose/index.html Rational Rose(tm)]) for modeling technical and non-technical systems. &lt;br /&gt;
* Basic skills at using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytic_Hierarchy_Process Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP)] including using [http://www.expertchoice.com/ ExpertChoice].&lt;br /&gt;
* Current reading material includes [http://aima.cs.berkeley.edu/  Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach] but mostly for the chapters on constraints. &lt;br /&gt;
* Fairly good technical and business audience writer. &lt;br /&gt;
* Decent programmer in C++, Java, XML, etc. and using a variety of info-worker tools (Project, Excel, MindMap, etc.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Documents ===&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== My CSSS-&#039;07 Interests and Goals===&lt;br /&gt;
* Interested in the courses on non-linear dynamics, modeling (including agent-based), computational complexity, finance, economics, pattern recognition, and markets&lt;br /&gt;
* Really interested in SFI&#039;s work on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complexity_economics complexity economics]. &lt;br /&gt;
* Interesting in hearing about lots of interesting ideas and meet lots of interesting people&lt;br /&gt;
* Would like to cquire some new ways of thinking about problems (esp. related to my work)&lt;br /&gt;
* Hope to learn more about complexity theory, complexity science, complexity economics, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Candidate Project/Paper Ideas===&lt;br /&gt;
* I work with very large, very complex, systems that include technical and non-technical participants.  They span organizations, borders and time.  Established engineering and management practices don&#039;t actually seem to guide them all that well and it is in our social interest that they function properly.  I&#039;m interested to learn, think and write about ideas that help us thrive amidst this chaos.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Potentially Useful Skills===&lt;br /&gt;
* Very strong, expert-level, at UML and using the dominant UML tools (&#039;&#039;e.g.&#039;&#039;  [http://www-306.ibm.com/software/awdtools/developer/rose/index.html Rational Rose(tm)]) for modeling technical and non-technical systems. &lt;br /&gt;
* Basic skills at using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytic_Hierarchy_Process Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP)] including using [http://www.expertchoice.com/ ExpertChoice].&lt;br /&gt;
* Current reading material includes [http://aima.cs.berkeley.edu/  Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach] but mostly for the chapters on constraints. &lt;br /&gt;
* Fairly good technical and business audience writer. &lt;br /&gt;
* Decent programmer in C++, Java, XML, etc. and using a variety of info-worker tools (Project, Excel, MindMap, etc.)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== SFI/CSSS &#039;07 Program Info. ===&lt;br /&gt;
* [[CSSS 2007 Santa Fe-Schedule]]&lt;br /&gt;
* [[CSSS 2007 Santa Fe-Readings]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===My Background===&lt;br /&gt;
* Masters, Engineering, Johns Hopkins University, 2002&lt;br /&gt;
* Bachelors, Political Science, University of Colorado, 1984&lt;br /&gt;
* [http://www.mitre.org/about/ffrdcs/cem.html Center for Enterprise Modernization] (CEM), MITRE, 2003-present&lt;br /&gt;
** CEM is a Federally Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC). Most of my work is devoted to enterprise modernization efforts in the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).&lt;br /&gt;
* Fidelity Investments, 1991-1996&lt;br /&gt;
** This was in the privately funded venture capital business&lt;br /&gt;
* United States Marine Corps, 1984-1988&lt;br /&gt;
** Primarily operating in the 1st Marine Division&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== My CSSS-&#039;07 Interests and Goals===&lt;br /&gt;
* Interested in the courses on non-linear dynamics, modeling (including agent-based), computational complexity, finance, economics, pattern recognition, and markets&lt;br /&gt;
* Really interested in SFI&#039;s work on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complexity_economics complexity economics]. &lt;br /&gt;
* Interesting in hearing about lots of interesting ideas and meet lots of interesting people&lt;br /&gt;
* Would like to cquire some new ways of thinking about problems (esp. related to my work)&lt;br /&gt;
* Hope to learn more about complexity theory, complexity science, complexity economics, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Candidate Project/Paper Ideas===&lt;br /&gt;
* I work with very large, very complex, systems that include technical and non-technical participants.  They span organizations, borders and time.  Established engineering and management practices don&#039;t actually seem to guide them all that well and it is in our social interest that they function properly.  I&#039;m interested to learn, think and write about ideas that help us thrive amidst this chaos.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== My CSSS-&#039;07 Interests and Goals===&lt;br /&gt;
* Interested in the courses on non-linear dynamics, modeling (including agent-based), computational complexity, finance, economics, pattern recognition, and markets&lt;br /&gt;
* Really interested in SFI&#039;s work on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complexity_economics complexity economics]. &lt;br /&gt;
* Interesting in hearing about lots of interesting ideas and meet lots of interesting people&lt;br /&gt;
* Would like to cquire some new ways of thinking about problems (esp. related to my work)&lt;br /&gt;
* Hope to learn more about complexity theory, complexity science, complexity economics, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Candidate Project/Paper Ideas===&lt;br /&gt;
* I work with very large, very complex, systems that include technical and non-technical participants.  They span organizations, borders and time.  Established engineering and management practices don&#039;t actually seem to guide them all that well and it is in our social interest that they function properly.  I&#039;m interested to learn, think and write about ideas that help us thrive amidst this chaos.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Potentially Useful Skills===&lt;br /&gt;
* Very strong, expert-level, at UML and using the dominant UML tools (&#039;&#039;e.g.&#039;&#039;  [http://www-306.ibm.com/software/awdtools/developer/rose/index.html Rational Rose(tm)]) for modeling technical and non-technical systems. &lt;br /&gt;
* Basic skills at using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytic_Hierarchy_Process Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP)] including using [http://www.expertchoice.com/ ExpertChoice].&lt;br /&gt;
* Current reading material includes [http://aima.cs.berkeley.edu/  Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach] but mostly for the chapters on constraints. &lt;br /&gt;
* Fairly good technical and business audience writer. &lt;br /&gt;
* Decent programmer in C++, Java, XML, etc. and using a variety of info-worker tools (Project, Excel, MindMap, etc.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===Hobbies===&lt;br /&gt;
* Video games.  Most genres.  Pretty much anything that comes with a toolkit so I can create my own stuff - e.g. [http://udn.epicgames.com/ Unreal engine.]&lt;br /&gt;

===My Background===&lt;br /&gt;
* Masters, Engineering, Johns Hopkins University, 2002&lt;br /&gt;
* Bachelors, Political Science, University of Colorado, 1984&lt;br /&gt;
* [http://www.mitre.org/about/ffrdcs/cem.html Center for Enterprise Modernization] (CEM), MITRE, 2003-present&lt;br /&gt;
** CEM is a Federally Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC). Most of my work is devoted to enterprise modernization efforts in the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).&lt;br /&gt;

** Primarily operating in the 1st Marine Division&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== My CSSS-&#039;07 Interests and Goals===&lt;br /&gt;
* Interested in the courses on non-linear dynamics, modeling (including agent-based), computational complexity, finance, economics, pattern recognition, and markets&lt;br /&gt;
* Really interested in SFI&#039;s work on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complexity_economics complexity economics]. &lt;br /&gt;
* Interesting in hearing about lots of interesting ideas and meet lots of interesting people&lt;br /&gt;
* Would like to cquire some new ways of thinking about problems (esp. related to my work)&lt;br /&gt;
* Hope to learn more about complexity theory, complexity science, complexity economics, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Candidate Project/Paper Ideas===&lt;br /&gt;
* I work with very large, very complex, systems that include technical and non-technical participants.  They span organizations, borders and time.  Established engineering and management practices don&#039;t actually seem to guide them all that well and it is in our social interest that they function properly.

&lt;br /&gt;
===SFI/CSSS Interests and Goals===&lt;br /&gt;
* Interested in the courses on non-linear dynamics, modeling (including agent-based), computational complexity, finance, economics, pattern recognition, and markets&lt;br /&gt;
* Really interested in SFI&#039;s work on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complexity_economics complexity economics]. &lt;br /&gt;
* Interesting in hearing about lots of interesting ideas and meet lots of interesting people&lt;br /&gt;
* Would like to cquire some new ways of thinking about problems (esp. related to my work)&lt;br /&gt;
* Hope to learn more about complexity theory, complexity science, complexity economics, etc. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Candidate Project/Paper Ideas===&lt;br /&gt;
* I work with very large, very complex, systems that include technical and non-technical participants.  They span organizations, borders and time.  Established engineering and management practices don&#039;t actually seem to guide them all that well and it is in our social interest that they function properly.  I&#039;m interested to learn, think and write about ideas that help us thrive amidst this chaos.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Potentially Useful Skills===&lt;br /&gt;
* Very strong, expert-level, at UML and using the dominant UML tools (&#039;&#039;e.g.&#039;&#039;  [http://www-306.ibm.com/software/awdtools/developer/rose/index.html Rational Rose(tm)]) for modeling technical and non-technical systems. &lt;br /&gt;
* Basic skills at using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytic_Hierarchy_Process Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP)] including using [http://www.expertchoice.com/ ExpertChoice].&lt;br /&gt;
* Current reading material includes [http://aima.cs.berkeley.edu/  Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach] but mostly for the chapters on constraints. &lt;br /&gt;
* Fairly good technical and business audience writer. &lt;br /&gt;
* Decent programmer in C++, Java, XML, etc. and using a variety of info-worker tools (Project, Excel, MindMap, etc.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Documents ===&lt;br /&gt;
* Knowledge-Based Authentication (KBA), NIST, February 2005 ([[Media:Lawler_NIST_ModelsOfKBA_2004-02.pdf|pdf]])&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===Hobbies===&lt;br /&gt;
* Video games.  Most genres.  Pretty much anything that comes with a toolkit so I can create my own stuff - e.g. [http://udn.epicgames.com/ Unreal engine.]&lt;br /&gt;
* Puzzles. Mostly things that are metaphors for my work. I spend more time than I ought to on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudoku Sudoku] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bejeweled Bejeweled].&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
===Education===&lt;br /&gt;
* Masters, Engineering, Johns Hopkins University&lt;br /&gt;
* Bachelors, Political Science, University of Colorado&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Experience===&lt;br /&gt;
* Principal Engineer, Center for Enterprise Modernization, MITRE&lt;br /&gt;
** Most of my work is devoted to enterprise modernization efforts in the Internal Revenue Service (IRS)&lt;br /&gt;
* Senior Analyst, Fidelity Investments&lt;br /&gt;
** This was in the privately funded venture capital business&lt;br /&gt;
* Officer, United States Marine Corps&lt;br /&gt;
** Primarily operating in the 1st Marine Division&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===SFI/CSSS Interests===&lt;br /&gt;
* The courses on non-linear dynamics, modeling (including agent-based), computational complexity, finance, economics, pattern recognition, and markets&lt;br /&gt;
* Really interested in SFI&#039;s work on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complexity_economics complexity economics]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Goals for SFI/CSSS Program===&lt;br /&gt;
* Hear about lots of interesting ideas and meet lots of interesting people&lt;br /&gt;
* Acquire some new ways of thinking about problems (esp. related to my work)&lt;br /&gt;
* Correct my appalling ignorance of complexity theory, complexity science, complexity economics, etc. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Candidate Project/Paper Ideas===&lt;br /&gt;
* Under construction - don&#039;t know enough to say. &lt;br /&gt;
* I work with very large, very complex, systems that include technical and non-technical participants.  They span organizations, borders and time.  Established engineering and management practices don&#039;t actually seem to guide them all that well and it is in our social interest that they function properly.  I&#039;m interested to learn, think and write about ideas that help us thrive amidst this chaos. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Potentially Useful Skills===&lt;br /&gt;
* Very strong, expert-level, at UML and using the dominant UML tools (&#039;&#039;e.g.&#039;&#039;  [http://www-306.ibm.com/software/awdtools/developer/rose/index.html Rational Rose(tm)]) for modeling technical and non-technical systems. &lt;br /&gt;
* Basic skills at using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytic_Hierarchy_Process Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP)] including using [http://www.expertchoice.com/ ExpertChoice].&lt;br /&gt;
* Current reading material includes [http://aima.cs.berkeley.edu/  Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach] but mostly for the chapters on constraints. &lt;br /&gt;
* Fairly good technical and business audience writer. &lt;br /&gt;
* Decent programmer in C++, Java, XML, etc. and using a variety of info-worker tools (Project, Excel, MindMap, etc.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Documents (Summer 2007)===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

===SFI/CSSS Interests===&lt;br /&gt;
* The courses on non-linear dynamics, modeling (including agent-based), computational complexity, finance, economics, pattern recognition, and markets&lt;br /&gt;
* Really interested in SFI&#039;s work on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complexity_economics complexity economics]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Goals for SFI/CSSS Program===&lt;br /&gt;
* Hear about lots of interesting ideas and meet lots of interesting people&lt;br /&gt;
* Acquire some new ways of thinking about problems (esp. related to my work)&lt;br /&gt;
* Correct my appalling ignorance of complexity theory, complexity science, complexity economics, etc. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Candidate Project/Paper Ideas===&lt;br /&gt;
* Under construction - don&#039;t know enough to say. &lt;br /&gt;
* I work with very large, very complex, systems that include technical and non-technical participants.  They span organizations, borders and time.  Established engineering and management practices don&#039;t actually seem to guide them all that well and it is in our social interest that they function properly.  I&#039;m interested to learn, think and write about ideas that help us thrive amidst this chaos. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Potentially Useful Skills===&lt;br /&gt;
* Very strong, expert-level, at UML and using the dominant UML tools (&#039;&#039;e.g.&#039;&#039;  [http://www-306.ibm.com/software/awdtools/developer/rose/index.html Rational Rose(tm)]) for modeling technical and non-technical systems. &lt;br /&gt;
* Basic skills at using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytic_Hierarchy_Process Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP)] including using [http://www.expertchoice.com/ ExpertChoice].&lt;br /&gt;
* Current reading material includes [http://aima.cs.berkeley.edu/  Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach] but mostly for the chapters on constraints. &lt;br /&gt;
* Fairly good technical and business audience writer. &lt;br /&gt;
* Decent programmer in C++, Java, XML, etc. and using a variety of info-worker tools (Project, Excel, MindMap, etc.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Hobbies===&lt;br /&gt;
* Video games.  Most genres.  Pretty much anything that comes with a toolkit so I can create my own stuff - e.g. [http://udn.epicgames.com/ Unreal engine.]&lt;br /&gt;
* Puzzles. Mostly things that are metaphors for my work. I spend more time than I ought to on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudoku Sudoku] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bejeweled Bejeweled].&lt;br /&gt;
