• My current work as Embark Postdoctoral Fellow encompasses a number of aspects relating to the simulation of cultural learning, defined as a means of non-genetic information exchange between individuals. My research to.
• DiversityDiversity measures how different each member of the population is from all others and is traditionally measured at a genetic level. My work has examined how the diversity of a population can be influenced by.
• Dynamic EnvironmentsTraditional evolutionary computation problems reside in a purely static environment. However, in most real-world problems, solutions are likely to vary as time passes and external factors affect the.
• Culture and CooperationThe study of cooperation between individuals has long been the focus of much research. In particular, the emergence and stability of cooperative behaviour is of crucial importance to researchers.

I began working as an Evolutionary Computation Consultant as part of a project undertaken by the Cork Constraint Computation Centre (4C). The project is in conjunction with Treemetrics, a software company specialising in optimising value recovery in forestry. My role was to develop a suitable genetic algorithm solution to efficiently distribute forestry.

As Applied Computing Teacher, I was responsible for lecture delivery and for the provision of a support role for students experiencing academic difficulties..The teaching aspect of my role included lecture preparation and delivery, project and assignment development, tutorial delivery and exam preparation and correction.

During my time as Assistant lecturer in the NUIG I.T. department, I was responsible for the development and delivery of the Artificial Life course, a new Advanced Topics course for 4th year students (CT433), covering evolutionary programming and artificial life simulation development. The development of the course required extensive research and the.

As assistant lecturer I was responsible for the development and delivery of detailed C programming tutorials for 2nd year undergraduate information technology students (CT229).The tutorials covered topics discussed during lectures but also included material specifically requested by the students through formal and informal feedback.In addition, I produced.

As teaching assistant, my duties included the correction of Database Systems assignments for 3rd year undergraduate Information Technology students (CT332).The assignments broadly covered each topic discussed in class including scheduling of transactions and crash recovery.

My duties at Virtual Access consisted of the development of embedded software for the company’s router systems. I was responsible for developing new features on the router, debugging and test tool development. I researched, documented and developed a number of test tools, which are now used for automated testing of the router’s capabilities, as well as a.

I was employed at Omnia software chiefly as a web software developer. This involved substantial programming in ASP and Perl as well as the design of underlying database structures in both Access and DB2. During my work at Omnia I was responsible for a number of web sites, in particular the complete design and development of an online document repository.
