Personal profile
SUMMARY of research interests (100 words)
I'm currently interested in network resilience and security, DDoS attacks, spam, network slicing and service orchestration.
Prior interests include multimedia,programmable networks, active networking, URN resolution, quality-of-service (QoS), group communication and group management.
Research Grants
My Ph.D. was funded by EPSRC-CASE studentship (ref. 9456391X) and sponsorship from BT Laboratories.
Web Links
I was quoted in a NewScientist article in 2011.
Other Interests and Hobbies
At some point, I enjoyed solving Nonograms, and writing programs to solve them. I created and maintain the Nonogram Solver site.
The Web has turned into an utter abomination, totally missing the point of being able to adapt to the rendering conditions. To get this frustration off my chest, a created and maintain "How The Web Went Wrong".
Profile
I created and maintain Forge@Lancaster, a source-code management site for the School.
Current Teaching
Although I'm not currently teaching as such, I do maintain “Learning C from Java”, created to support Lancaster students who were taught Java programming in their first year, and needed C for later aspects of their degrees.
