Shi was born in Shijiazhuang, Hebei, China.[3] He received his B.S. and M.S. in Electrical Engineering from Beijing Institute of Technology in 1984 and 1987, and his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Michigan in 1992 under the supervision of Shien-Ming (Sam) Wu. Prior to joining Georgia Institute of Technology in 2008, he was the G. Lawton and Louise G. Johnson Professor of Engineering at the University of Michigan.[4]
Dr. Shi is a pioneer in the development and application of data fusion for quality improvements. His methodologies integrate system informatics, advanced statistics, and control theory for the design and operational improvements of manufacturing and service systems by fusing engineering systems models with data science methods. Shi has advised 38 Ph.D. graduates, 26 of whom have joined an academic industrial engineering department as a faculty member.[5] Among them, seven received National Science Foundation Career Awards and one received the National Science PECASE Award.[6]
Shi has published one book “Stream of Variation Modeling and Analysis for Multistage Manufacturing Processes”,[7] and more than 180 papers.[8] Shi has served as the Editor-in-Chief of the IISE Transactions (2017-2020), the flagship journal of the Institute of Industrial and Systems Engineers.
