Introduction
News: I am the organising chair for the 13th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Utility and Cloud Computing (UCC 2020) being held in Leicester, UK from December 7-10, 2020.
I am a Professor of distributed systems at the University of Leicester, UK. Previously I was a Professor of Distributed Systems and Director of the Data Science Research Centre at the University of Derby, UK. My areas of research include data intensive distributed systems, distributed machine learning models and high performance analytics platforms for continuous processing of streaming data.
I have been part of the EC funded projects in distributed systems and large scale analytics such as Health-e-Child (IP, FP6), neuGrid (STREP, FP7) and TRANSFORM (IP, FP7) where I investigated resource management and optimization issues in large scale distributed systems and provided platforms for high performance data analytics.
I have been investigating large scale distributed systems and analytics platforms for the LHC data in collaboration with CERN Geneva Switzerland for the last fifteen years. Before starting an academic career, I worked for various software multinational companies for around ten years.
I have secured grants from industrial partners, Innovate UK, RCUK and other funding agencies for investigating high performance video analytics systems for producing intelligence and evidence for medical, security, object tracking and forensic science applications.
I am closely working with healthcare providers, hospitals and pharma companies in investigating high performance analytics systems for distributed clinical intelligence and integration, iterative genome analytics and precision medicine.
I am also working in collaboration with rail companies to investigate how rail infrastructures and services can benefit from Internet of Things (IoT) and real time analytics by intelligently analyzing streams of data arriving from large rail networks for improving the accuracy, reliability and capacity of rail infrastructures and services. In addition, I am also investigating ways to model the rail networks as a distributed graph system and provide adaptive scheduling and resource management systems.
Thanks to a grant from Innovate UK, I am working with a leading VR provider to commoditise digital twins and enable real time visualization of data models and distributed algorithms in a Virtual Reality environment. This work allows distributed parties involved in large scale collaborative engineering projects to identify potential conflicts or required changes at the design stage, rather than during manufacturing, when they’re extremely costly to put right.
I am also closely working with automotive & logistics companies (thanks to grants from Innovate UK) to investigate smart tracking and logistical models using innovative IoT technologies and Machine Learning approaches for intelligent stock tracking, warehousing and distributed supply chain management optimization.
Please get in touch with me if you're interested in a research and development project in Distributed Systems, Edge Computing, High Performance Data Analytics or in another area of my research interests. Broadly Speaking, I have the research and development interests in the following areas:
- • Data Intensive Distributed Systems
- • Distributed Machine Learning and AI
- • Edge and Embedded Artificial Intelligence
- • Graph Learning Systems for High Performance Analytics
- • Blockchains and Trustworthy Distributed Systems
I am keen to build partnerships with colleagues from industry and academia. I am always looking for bright PhD students who are keen to make a difference. Please get in touch with me if you're interested in a research or development project in an area of my research interests.
