The Scottish Informatics and Computer Science Alliance (SICSA) is a collaboration of Scottish Universities whose goal is to develop and extend Scotland's position as a world leader in Informatics and Computer Science research and education. [SICSA website, http://www.sicsa.ac.uk/home]

Along with Professor Stephen Brewster in the University of Glasgow I was the theme leader for the Multimodal Interaction theme within SICSA. Personal ubiquitous interfaces require research enabling multiple, rich communication channels between people and vast bodies of information.

This is a SICSA wide program branded under Informatics Ventures to support entrepreneurship and innovation. It compliments the work on the individual Universities technology transfer offices. The goal of this is to maximise the industrial impact of the academic excellence and talent produced by the SICSA pool in terms of spin-outs, start-ups and other knowledge exchange supports.

External board member of the IDEAS Research Institute executive committee in Robert Gordon University. IDEAS is a "multi-disciplinary research centre that develops novel technologies highly relevant to industry, and generates creative spaces for new forms of practice."

I was the inaugural director of the Human Interface Technology Laboratory Australia (HIT Lab AU) and an Associate Professor in the School of Computing and Information Systems in the University of Tasmania Australia. http://www.hitlab.utas.edu.auDuring this time I established the vision for the lab to be "International excellence in Human Interface Technology research and development". The mission I established for the HITLab Australia is to be an internationally significant provider of Human Interface Technologies emphasizing: 1) advanced human interface technologies for use in real-world, non-desktop computing spaces i.e. “in the wild”2) excellence in solving cross-disciplinary research problems with interface technologies through collaboration3) the positioning of Tasmania as a leader in the field of interface technology R&D.I was part of a research consortium which secured the BRAID grant worth €1,000,000 of which the HITLab and UTAS is a partner. I also brokered funding from local SMEs to support research in the HITLab along with supporting my staff with the HITLab in their successful grant applications. During this time I was workshops co-chair for Pervasive 2010 in Helsinki Finland in addition to being appointed the chair of the International Steering Committee of the Pervasive Computing Conference Series. I co-chaired PPD'10 a workshop as part of AVI 2010 on coupled display visual interfaces on May 25, 2010 in Rome, Italy. I also served on the program committees of several leading international conferences including UbiComp 2010 and IOT 2010. I also edited a special issue on interaction with coupled and public displays in the Springer Journal of Personal and Ubiquitous Computing.

Until Dec of 2009 I was an academic staff member of the School of Computer Science & Informatics in the Complex and Adaptive Systems Laboratory, University College Dublin, Ireland. In this role I was a Co-Principal Investigator for the SFI Strategic Research Cluster Clique on Graph and Network Analysis, an IBM CAS Visiting Scientist, the UCD director of ODCSSS, the coordinator for the EU FP7 support action CAPSIL, a researcher in Lero the Irish Software Engineering Research Centre and a collaborator in CLARITY the Centre for Sensor Web Technologies. In addition I was the UCD PI for Dviz, a collaborative digital technology research project between Twelve Horses, IADT and UCD which is funded by the NDRC.During my time there I led a team of upto 22 (postdocs, postgrads, research engineers etc.) with support from colleagues. My research interests in UCD included human computer interaction, pervasive computing, software engineering, information visualisation, P2P and ad-hoc networking.

I visit IBM Dublin roughly 1 day per week to work with researchers and developers there on a variety of activities ranging for informal discussion, through project supervison. My aim of working with IBM is to research large scale information visualisation techniques to support enterprise information infrastructures (EII). The initial focus is on the use of IBM tools to support the exploration and navigation of voluminous real-time data sets generated from components in an EII. This research is an extension of his work on software visualisation and exploration of data from ubiquitous computing systems.

The Online Dublin Computer Science Summer School. UCD Director. This was an SFI funded UREKA site from 2007 - 2010 however it started unfunded in 2006 and may continue beyond 2010. While focusing on world class research, ODCSS provided the 80+ participants with exposure to a distributed, cooperative and collaborative research environment facilitated and supported by weekly exchanges of the entire summer school cohort to alternating site locations, thematic web-sites for the presentation of research progress and results to the public, web-based tools for intra-area and inter-area collaboration, weekly activities to ferment cooperation and collaboration, weekly seminars, research management seminars including intellectual property and patenting, on-going support for collaboration through social activities.Many of the ODCSSS research interns have gone on to pursue research higher degree courses in Ireland and across the world.

As a Principal Investigator on the Technology Platform for the TRIL Centre working in UCD I led a team of over ten people.

My role in this job was as a Senior Research Fellow in the Smart Internet Technologies Research Group and associated with the (Smart Internet Technology CRC) in Australia. As a senior research fellow I was the project leader for two Smart Internet Technology CRC research projects (one in conjunction with the National ICT Australia). My sub-research group consisted of 7 people at any given time. This included 2 PhD students, 2 Masters student, 2 Software Engineers, 2 Research Associates and a few honours students.

I conceived of this project to explore interfaces for older people sharing memories with digital objects. I was able to secure funding from both NICTA and the Smart Internet CRC to fund this project. It was the first joint NICTA/CRC funded project in Australia. In the project we researched and developed a number of prototypes from a MultiModal system for capturing input from voice, gesture and pen into drawable interfaces and a Memento system, published in the PUC Journal. Along with a tabletop photo sharing project called SharePic which was published in CHI. More importantly, it lead a second generation of researchers and local academics into these areas of study.

I was visiting research scientist at Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories (MERL) in Cambridge, Massachusetts. I researched a Design-Gallery approach to large scale optimization problems (IEEE published) on Antenna design. I got to use C, C++, Fortran, Java, and Java3D along with a large Beowulf cluster of 1Ghz machines (it was very fun).

Newcastle Australia: From May of 1999 until September of 2001 I was an associate lecturer in the Department of Computer Science and Software Engineering in the University of Newcastle, Australia. During this time, along with teaching and researching, I was the International student Mentor, Work Experience Coordinator, honours student supervisor, MIT student supervisor, and summer project supervisor. This role taught me many things, one of which is how much fun being a lecturer can be. And that it does however take good time management skill to be a successful academic who can blend their teaching and research.

From June 1998 until February of 99 I was working in Austin, Texas as a Research Intern with Semantic Designs Inc. This company is researching and producing semantically driven software products to support the Maintenance effort. I worked on several visualization tools which tied in with my PhD research topic.
