I am a Lecturer in Computer Science at Aston University in Birmingham in the UK. My research is concerned with online learning, adaptation and optimisation in complex agent-based systems.

I am particularly interested in such systems' use of biological, social and economic inspired techniques, in the context of their characteristics with respect to decentralisation, heterogeneity and self-awareness. I have developed concepts, architectures and algorithms for complex computing systems such as distributed smart camera networks, hypermusic ensembles, FPGAs and cloud federations.
