Tanveer Fasi Ahmed is a leading figure in the area
of practical General Systems Theory, and a strong
proponent of John N.Warfield's graphical methods of
modeling systems. Born in November 1975 in Nellore, Southern India, he graduated in Engineering from Osmania
University in 1996. In
1999, he met George S.Chandy
in the capacity of a software consultant and this meeting changed
his outlook to life, systems and the world in general. Chandy is a
prominent member of Warfield's systems community and in 1981 had
developed the One Page Management System (OPMS).
OPMS is a simplified and arguably
more practical version of Warfield's methodology. Tanveer imbibed
the concepts of OPMS from Chandy and started using the techniques
very effectively in his personal and professional life. He also led
the initial efforts to develop a software for OPMS.
He is the
leader of the "open sysAME" project ([1449]) which is the
open source software that implements OPMS (it stands for open
source systems Analysis and Modeling Engine).
