overview: I am a Reader in Computing in the Department of Computing and Communications of The Open University, UK. I am a member of the Human-Centred Computing research group in the Centre for Research in Computing at The Open University. MyLinkedIn profilehas details of my educational background and professional experience. List of publications including journal and conference papers, reports, tutorials and workshop presentations is available in The Open University's repository of research outputs:Open Research Online
research overview: Research in emerging socio-technologies and industrial collaborations My research projects involve the design and evaluation of user experience in emerging online domains: e-commerce, e-health, social software such as blogs, wikis and social networking tools, e-government, and three-dimensional (3D) virtual worlds. The research outcomes of my projects have been - evidence-based methodologies, frameworks, models, guidelines, and novel toolkits - which inform the design and evaluation of the overall user experience. Stakeholders, including designers, researchers, students, educators, policy makers, and marketing specialists have adopted the evidence-based outcomes of my research in their practice and policy-making. My research is inherently inter-disciplinary: it builds on the synergies of the multiple intellectual cultures I have integrated, and the heterogeneity of funding, approaches, and communities this has engaged. Starting from the empirically-grounded human-centred design principles of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), I have adapted theory and methods from design, services marketing, psychology and sociology to bring different perspectives together to formulate the underpinning theory/methodology in my research projects.
