Experience:

David Eike is a research psychologist with over twenty-five years of technical and management experience. Mr. Eike's primary areas of specialization are user interface design, collaborative prototyping, data mining, knowledge discovery and data visualization. Mr. Eike works closely with senior DOE managers and analysts to develop concepts and techniques for managing the large, complex datasets used in developing and administering energy policy. In recent years, Mr. Eike has divided his time between DOE's Office of Science and the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE). For the Office of Science, Mr. Eike is conducting research into the potential value of applying emerging knowledge discovery and data visualization technologies to enhance the management and assessment of the office's basic science research portfolio. For EERE, Mr. Eike designed and developed an integrated suite of decision support tools for managing, evaluating and reporting on the EERE's R&D portfolio.

Prior to joining PNNL in 1990, Mr. Eike was Vice President of Carlow Associates, a small engineering services company in Northern Virginia. While at Carlow, Mr. Eike was Principal Investigator for a series of projects to develop functional prototypes of advanced information management technologies for ground-based spacecraft control and monitoring at Goddard Spaceflight Center. Mr. Eike also has extensive experience in the nuclear power industry, where he led a series of projects to improve control room designs and operating procedures at 16 nuclear power plants in the US, Japan and Spain. Earlier in his career, Mr. Eike worked on a series of projects for the Department of Defense, including projects to evaluate usability and maintainability for various military systems at Ft. Rucker, Alabama; Ft. Huachuca, Arizona; White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico; and, the Naval Sea Systems Command, Crystal City, Virginia.
