Jose Maria Pelaez’s Summary

I like to discover new ideas, models, methods and tools for dealing with knowledge. Software is something great to handle and provide them as an accessible service to many people.

Being a backgrounded engineer, production of goods, services delivery and the associated logistics works are whithin my main interests regarding professional life.

I believe that operations are working processes that take place in simple or complex networks where people and organizations exchange information and materials. They should be considered in an integrated and detailed manner in order to be effective and flexible enough whithout being economically inefficient.

My current professional goal is to provide a comprehensive scheme for «high-resolution management» in Operations.

My personal interests lie on enjoying from emotions, searchs, discoveries, personal relationships, tastes… in daily life.
