Biography
I'm currently working on the One VRE to Join Them All project which will enable enhanced data and application sharing between communities that are already using separate VREs. A new VRE Framework will be created through the integration of the Portal Access Grid (PAG) into and joining together existing VREs, which are based on JSR-168 standard portal environments such as Sakai.
I'm also providing support for the International AVS Centre.
Previous work:
I worked on the VRE2 Collaborative Research Events on the Web (CREW) that provides a recording environment for conferences and Access Grid Meetings through AG technologies.
Portal Access Grid (PAG) bringing Access Grid onto the end users Machine through Portal technologies
- Software Engineer for the National Centre for e-Social Science
- Software Engineer for the International AVS Centre (IAC) to support, maintain and develop modules for the IAC repositories.
Network-Oriented Visualization in the Clinical Environment (NOVICE) is developing a system for medical image data analysis and visualization through the web with the intention of demonstrating the effectiveness of such a system in the clinical environment through a set of realistic clinical demonstrator applications.
In addition I provide project support for student projects (MSc/ERASMUS) run by RCS.
