Distinguished Contributions of Keith W. Hipel to Scholarly Research
Overview: Keith Hipel is University Professor of Systems Design Engineering at the
University of Waterloo, Past President of the Academy of Science within the Royal Society ofCanada, Senior Fellow of the Centre for International Governance Innovation, Fellow of theBalsillie School of International Affairs, and Coordinator of the Conflict Analysis Group at
Waterloo. He is globally renowned for his unique interdisciplinary research from a Systems
Engineering perspective on the development of conflict resolution, multiple criteria decision
analysis (MCDA), time series analysis and other decision-making methodologies for addressing
challenging system of systems engineering problems lying at the confluence of society,technology and the environment, with applications in water resources management, hydrology,
environmental engineering, energy, and sustainable development.
Conflict Resolution: Keith Hipel and his research team are the originators of the Graph Model
for Conflict Resolution (GMCR) which constitutes the most comprehensive and flexible formal
approach available for systematically investigating real world conflict. The solid mathematicaldesign of GMCR for representing and understanding disputes permits one to model interactive
decision making realistically, forecast compromise solutions, and furnish valuable strategic
insights. The GMCR methodology includes a novel theoretical structure for modelling the key
characteristics of conflict; innovative preference elicitation methods for capturing stakeholders’value systems; operational techniques for handling preference uncertainty (unknown, fuzzy andgrey) and strength of preference; stability concepts for analyzing different kinds of humanbehaviour under conflict; policy analysis; agent-based modelling using a GMCR perspective;
formal consideration of the influence of psychological factors such as attitudes, emotions andmisunderstandings (hypergames); coalition analysis for reaching cooperative win/win
resolutions; extensive implementation algorithms some of which are based on a new matrix
approach for equivalently defining GMCR; hierarchical conflicts; third party intervention
using inverse GMCR; and a decision support system called GMCR II for permitting practicalapplications in diverse fields (used by 72 user groups in 25 countries). A 1993 Wiley (New
York) book entitled Interactive Decision Making: The Graph Model for Conflict Resolutionthat Hipel wrote with L. Fang and D.M. Kilgour, received excellent reviews. A comprehensive
new book on conflict resolution is currently being written.
Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA): In MCDA, a set of alternative solutions forsolving a given problem is evaluated and compared according to a range of criteria such as
costs, benefits, environmental effects, and social impacts. Hipel and his co-workers havedesigned formal methods for taking interdependence among alternatives into account when a
final resolution may consist of a combination of alternatives, such as a regional government
faced with selecting a mixture of groundwater, lake water and conservation alternatives for−7−satisfying future water demands. They have developed different kinds of classification
techniques to handle the elimination of inferior solutions, sorting of alternatives into groups
ranked according to preference, and placing alternatives into nominal categories. As well, they
have proposed special MCDA methods for use in group decision making and negotiation. To
handle uncertainty, they have contributed to both fuzzy and grey MCDA. Their MCDA
methods have been applied to societal decision problems in water supply planning, varying
water levels in the Great Lakes, electrical generation, third world infrastructure redevelopment,
inventory management and business.
Time Series Modelling: The classic book on Time Series Modelling of Water Resources andEnvironmental Systems (Elsevier, Amsterdam, 1994) that Hipel wrote with A.I. McLeod brings
together contributions in stochastic hydrology, statistical water quality modelling and statistics,
to create a unified and comprehensive approach to environmetrics – the development andapplication of statistics in the environmental sciences. They also produced an associateddecision support system called the MH Time Series Package. A great strength of Hipel’s
research in environmetrics is the integrative employment of exploratory data analysis tools,
intervention models (special types of transfer-function noise models), regression analysis andnonparametric trend tests for detecting, modelling, and estimating the magnitudes of trends inenvironmental time series. This type of environmental impact assessment is essential for many
important societal activities related to sustainable development including the determination of
the effects of land use changes upon the environment, and the effectiveness of pollution
abatement policies. Other research in environmetrics to which Hipel made significant
contributions includes solving a famous hydrological problem called the Hurst Phenomenon,
designing algorithms and procedures for use in model construction, developing simulation
algorithms for employment with short and long-memory models, and completing extensive
split-sample experiments to ascertain which types of models are most suitable for forecasting
nonseasonal and seasonal hydrological time series.
Other Decision Making Methodologies: Based on the extensive form of a game, Hipel and his
team have constructed compliance models for systematically assessing the effectiveness of arange of policies for enforcing and encouraging adherence by firms to environmental laws andregulations. The cost-effectiveness of inducing compliance is assessed in terms of factors suchas the private gain for violators, the costs of inspection by agencies and the social value of
encouraging sustainable development. Utilizing concepts from economics, ethics, hydrology,
and cooperative game theory, a complex optimization approach called the Cooperative Water
Allocation Model has recently been developed for equitably allocating fresh water among
competing users in a river basin with application to both the Aral Sea and South Saskatchewan
River Basins. A journal paper on this topic that Hipel wrote with L.Wang and L. Fang won the2012 Best Publication Award in Environment and Sustainability from INFORMS (Institute forOperations Research and the Management Sciences). Other contributions of Hipel to decision−8−

making under uncertainty include a systems approach to risk analysis and information-gap
modelling in water resources.
System of Systems (SoS) Engineering: Large-scale SoS problems possess great complexity,
deep uncertainty, a diversity of agents, conflicting values, interconnections, and emergent
behaviour (surprises), as evidenced by the ongoing interdependent problems of climate change,energy shortages, the food crisis, over-population, lack of fresh water, economic instability,
widespread pollution and regional wars. Accordingly, Hipel’s foregoing research contributions
are employed within an SoS framework when addressing complex interconnected problems
using integrative and adaptive governance in a participatory and interdisciplinary fashion.
Hipel and his group are developing a more general theory of SoS engineering and related
governance implications to tackle the many pressing SoS problems now facing society and thenatural environment.
Impacts: For his valuable contributions to research, mentoring and service, Hipel has received
49 prestigious awards including an important Japanese science prize (Japan Society for the
Promotion of Science Eminent Scientist Award for which the previous 6 out of 7 recipients are
Nobel Prize Laureates); highest international distinction in systems engineering research(Norbert Wiener Award from the IEEE Systems, Man and Cybernetics Society); top prizes inwater resources research (Honorary Diplomate, Water Resources Engineers (Hon.D.WRE)
from the American Academy of Water Resources Engineers within the American Society of
Civil Engineers; Honorary Member in the American Water Resources Association (AWRA));awards for interdisciplinary research (Sir John William Dawson Medal (Royal Society ofCanada); Icko Iben Award (AWRA)); professional engineering recognition (Engineering
Medal for Research and Development (Ontario)); and teaching awards (Outstanding
Engineering Educator Award from IEEE Canada; Distinguished Teacher Award (University ofWaterloo)). Hipel has influenced academia through the publication of highly-cited leading-edge
research (4 books, 12 edited books, 289 refereed journal papers and numerous conference
articles; high Hirsch Index of 48, over 10,080 citations); mentoring students (32 PhD and 47
Master’s students have graduated; taught over 5,000 students in Canada and 1,000 more
overseas); curriculum development; internationalization of university education via theestablishment of successful student exchange programs with three Japanese universities and aChinese university; and founding an ongoing sequence of water resources conferences. Hipel
has further contributed to technology transfer via carrying out advanced consulting withengineering firms, utilities and government agencies. He was Co-Chair of the Expert Panel on
Energy Use and Climate Change (Council of Canadian Academies) which produced the report“Technology and Policy Options for a Low-Emission Energy System in Canada” (2015).
