Call for workshop papers: First International Workshop on Nudge &
Influence Through Mobile Devices - NIMD'10, Lisbon, Portugal, 7th of
September 2010
Submission Deadline: 15th of May 2010
About Me
I graduated from University of Amirkabir (Tehran Polytechnic), Iran, as a Computer Engineer (B.Eng. in Hardware) in 1998. In 2002 I was awarded the M.Eng. degree in electrical engineering (Robotics and Machine Intelligence) for the results of the examinations and the final research project undertaken at University of Tehran, Iran. My thesis related the design and implementation of a human-machine interface for people with spinal cord injury.
I held a position as a PhD/research student at the Hamilton Institute from April 2003 to September 2006 and completed the PhD in Continuous Gestural Interaction with Mobile Devices in October 2006. The title of my thesis is "Making Sense of Interaction Using a Model-Based Approach". My supervisor was Prof. Roderick Murray-Smithand my external examiner was Professor Harold Thimbleby from the Future Interaction Technologies Laboratory, Swansea University of Wales.
Current position
Since March 2007, I have been employed as a lecturer at Computer Science Department, Swansea University of Wales, and I am collaborating with the Future Interaction Technology lab in this department. I am also collaborating with Bristol University (Robotics Lab), Kingstone University (Faculty of Law & Business), UCLIC and Dynamics and Interaction group in both Hamilton Institute and Glasgow University.
Research interests
My current research interests are "dynamic and resilient human-computer interaction (HCI)'', "HCI & medical devices" and "persuasion in HCI".
