Senior Research Fellow
I am interested in the development of intelligent distributed systems for the Web. My research mainly builds upon results from the Semantic Web and Services communities, and is strongly influenced by Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering principles. Currently I'm focussing on the automated location, interpretation and mining of services and things at Web scale. In previous years I also worked on the development of Semantic Business Process Analysis techniques.
