Home I am a PhD student in the Expertise Centre for Digital Media (EDM) lab at Hasselt University in Belgium. My research interests lie at the intersection of Human-Computer Interaction and Ubiquitous Computing. I work with Professors Kris Luyten and Karin Coninx. More specifically, I am investigating techniques that help users understand what is happening in their Ubicomp environment and that allow them to intervene if necessary. I believe that improving understanding and control will be necessary to make Ubicomp environments usable, predictable and safe for users. I have previously done research on multi-device user interfaces and the User Interface Markup Language (UIML). For more details, have a look at my list of publications. I also try to blog once in a while to share what is on my mind. |
