A Multi-Disciplinary Approach to Digital Transformation and Innovation DTI

Abstract:
At the University of Ottawa, the Digital Transformation and Innovation (DTI) graduate program is a multi-disciplinary collaboration between the Management, Arts, and Engineering to train highly qualified professionals to create, manage, and research the profound change to our world that is happening as a result of digital technology. At its heart, the technology enables the collection and communication of huge amounts of data that transform how business and society work. It also creates a new online environment where the experience of business and social interactions by individuals are being reinvented. Innovation is an important aspect of the program that emphasizes the re-invention and creative design of user experiences in business and social interactions. In this talk, I will first reflect on the nature, successes, and future of DTI as a graduate program. Then, I will highlight several research-oriented success stories (process-goal alignment, process mining, regulatory intelligence, and the specification of legal contracts with their monitoring using smart contracts) in which some of my DTI graduate students were involved. These multi-disciplinary projects will demonstrate the relevance of DTI in industrial, governmental, and healthcare contexts.

Biography:
Daniel Amyot is Professor at the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science of the University of Ottawa, and Co-Director of the graduate programs in Digital Transformation and Innovation. His research interests include software engineering, scenario-based and goal-based requirements engineering, business process modelling and mining, regulatory compliance, smart contracts, and healthcare informatics. Daniel led the standardization of the User Requirements Notation, which combines goal and process modelling, at the International Telecommunication Union. He is now heavily invested in the development of Symboleo, a language for specifying, verifying, and monitoring (smart) legal contracts. He was general chair of the Requirements Engineering Conference in 2015 and program co-chair in 2018. Daniel is on the editorial boards of the SoSyM and REJ journals. He holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Ottawa (2001), and is a professional engineer (OIQ), I.S.P. (CIPS), and a Senior Member of IEEE.
