I joined EPCC in April 2006. I am working on the OMII-Europe project with particular responsibility for integrating OGSA-DAI with gLite and UNICORE.
I have a Ph.D. in Theoretical Elementary Particle Physics which I obtained from the University of London (Imperial College) in 1979. After 5 years as a post-doc in Cambridge, Saclay (France) and Edinburgh I moved into software engineering. I joined a team in GEC developing an array processor.
I held various posts in R&D over the next 21 years, the last (and longest held) being in simulation and training. The company underwent many changes of name and ownership in that time: it was part of BAE Sytems by the time I left.
I am experienced in object-orientated programming, and mathematical modelling of physical and technical systems. I am interested in knowledge based systems.
