Bartel Van de Walle is Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer and Information Science at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) where his research efforts focus on group decision and negotiation support. He has particular interests in rationality (when and why are decision makers (not) being rational), and in developing software tools that support buy-sell decisions and negotiations in eCommerce, especially Net Markets. His teaching duties at the University currently consist of an undergraduate course on Advanced Information Systems and a research course on Decision Support Systems. Bartel holds a joint appointment with the Ph.D. in Management Program at Rutgers University in Newark.
Bartel Van de Walle obtained his Ph.D. in mathematics at the University of Gent in Belgium, thus succesfully concluding his tenure as a research assistant at the renowned Belgian nuclear research center SCK-CEN. As a staff member at SCK-CEN, he helped pioneer the use of fuzzy logic in nuclear decision aiding systems, and developed software prototypes for individual and group decision making. He has conducted trial experiments on group information exchange and judgmental biases at the same nuclear research center, mainly as part of the 0.7 million Euro (or, almost equivalently, dollar) research project 'Cohesion' he initiated at SCK. The Cohesion project was supported by the Flemish government and the Information Technologies Action Program II 1999-2000.
Bartel Van de Walle has been a speaker at numerous national and international conferences, was an invited researcher at several universities, served on the organizing committee of three international workshops on fuzzy logic and possibility theory in Belgium, and is a member of the Program Committees of 'Group Decision and Negotiation 2001' and of the Eurofuse Workshop on Preference Modelling. He has published journal and conference articles on various aspects of fuzzy preference modeling, individual and group decision making and applications in nuclear decision support.
