Biography

Brad Lee is based in the CSIRO Information, Communication and Technology Centre in Hobart, Australia. Brad is currently conducting water informatics experiments for the Water for a Healthy Country Flagship. The experiments are designed to elicit best-practice information technology solutions that will enhance the management of Australia's scarce water resources.

Brad has a wealth of knowledge and experience in information technology. This is demonstrated by the variety of successful projects that Brad has undertaken over the last 25 years, both in Australia and in the United Kingdom. Some projects worth noting include science support systems for the CSIRO, management systems for the Australian Tax Office and Medicare Australia, a national criminal information system for Attorney Generals and an aircraft maintenance system for the RAAF.

During the time spent in the United Kingdom, Brad completed a Masters of Science. As part of the Masters dissertation Brad developed a model for the conversion of functional requirements into test case specifications.
