Current projects include:

Embody - Studying the impact of mobility upon reasoning about time

I3T - The intergenerational interpretation of the "internet of things"; how will new technologies impact upon family life?

Past Research

Before coming to Nottingham I worked in defence Human Factors (in particular C4ISR, Network Enabled Capability and search of environment) via the Human Factors Integration Defence Technology Centre (HFIDTC). A range of technical reports I authored or co-authored on those topics can be found for download on their website.
