Research Interests

Given my computer science background, my general interests lie in the areas of artificial intelligence, intelligent agents, evolutionary computing and software engineering. More specifically, I am interested in applying these interests to the business domain.

I am particularly interested in intelligent agents and agent-oriented software engineering, in which my Ph.D. research is currently being conducted. My Ph.D. research focuses on pragmatic design and implementation of flexible and robust interactions for intelligent agents.

I also have an interest in agent teamwork, which my honours research was based on. In the work, benchmark scenarios for collaborative agent development platforms were developed.
