Senior Lecturer in Computer Science
I obtained a PhD in Computer Science from the University of East Anglia in 2006. After that, I worked in several higher education institutions in the UK and completed many research projects funded by EPSRC and collaborating with industry.
In 2022 I joined the University of Sunderland to work as Senior Lecturer in Computer Science.
