Interests

Much of my research over the past five years or so has been driven by one overarching theme: the development of models and technologies to facilitate assured, appropriate data sharing and aggregation in complex environments.  To this end, I am interested in the following:

• Data security in distributed contexts
• Techniques for data sharing and aggregation to support research and other applications
• Models and frameworks for access control
• Models and metrics for privacy and confidentiality

Other long standing interests include:

• Privacy and confidentiality
• Safety-critical systems
• The relationship between security and safety
• The application of formal description techniques (Z, CSP, Alloy) to the modelling and analysis of critical systems

Biography

I gained a first class honours degree in Computer Science from the University of Wales, Swansea.  Later, I received an MSc and a DPhil from the University of Oxford.  I am currently a University Lecturer in Software Engineering at the University of Oxford, teaching on the Software Engineering Programme (a post I have held since January 2002). Previously I was a Principal Lecturer in Computing at Oxford Brookes University; prior to that I was a research officer in the Computing Laboratory (now Department of Computer Science).
