My focus is on intelligent agent technologies, decision support concepts, and formal methods for multiagent systems. In particular, modeling the behavior of multiagent systems and logical frameworks to represent and reason about decision processes in multiagent settings. The following points characterize my general research interests:

• • Agent-based computing

  • Logics for multiagent systems

  • Strategic decision making and game theoretic approaches

  • Temporal representation and reasoning

  • Virtual organizations/institutions

  • Group responsibility and related socio-technical concepts

Research Projects

• • Co-Investigator at VESTAS (Verifiably Safe and Trusted Human-AI Systems)

  • Co-Investigator at XHS (Explainable Human-Swarm Systems)

  • Co-Investigator at ARGOS (AI-assisted Resilience Governance Systems)

  • Research Fellow at AutoTrust (Human Centered Internet of Vehicles)

  • Research Fellow at TAS Hub (UKRI Trustworthy Autonomous Systems Hub)

  • Research Collaborator at CCAIS (Citizen-Centric AI Systems)

  • PhD Researcher at SHAREBOX (Innovative Technologies for Circular Economy)

Academic Visit

From July to October 2019, I was an academic visitor at Imperial College London, visiting Prof. Nick Jennings.
