information technology in the determination of these parameters. Through these research activities he has
published a number of book chapters, journal papers and referred conference
papers. In 2011 he was awarded the JC
Stevens Award by the ASCE for his publication in the Journal of Hydraulic
Engineering related to urban drainage system modelling. Prior to joining the University of Technology
