Edward R. Caroll

Edward R. Carroll is a Principal R&D Systems Research Analyst at Sandia National Laboratories researching engineering methodologies. In the past 3 years, he has focused on understanding the optimal application of advanced engineering approaches (including digital enterprise (model-based engineering), modular architecture, and agile hardware approaches) toward meeting Sandia’s strategic nuclear weapons engineering objectives. He has over 35 years of experience leading the development of data-intensive system solutions to automate business decisions through analytic models. Ed has led system development projects and programs to automate decisions for economic performance analyses and merchandising optimization, improved manufacturing and supply-chain operations through statistical process control, and defined statistical comparisons of clinical procedure effectiveness. Ed directed his own consultancy for 14 years, and provided leadership in executive roles in business development and technology, including roles as vice president of engineering for Egghead.com, director of technology at Nike, and director of software engineering at Boeing, and is a retired Naval Aviator. Ed received a BA in Liberal Art from Arizona State University, a MS in Systems Management from the University of Southern California, and a Graduate Certificate in BioMedical Informatics from Oregon Health Sciences University. He lives with his wife, Barbara, in Albuquerque, NM.

I’m an ontology practitioner who has recently become a research analyst. As a practitioner (CTO of Egghead.com and elsewhere) I led several projects that required a well constructed ontology as key to cross platform integration. And now, ontologies play into my research.
