My main interests are in subjects related to Networking, especifically in Distributed Systems. However I am also interested in Commmunities of Practice (CoPs) and their relations with the Management of Knowledge.

The Department of Computer Science at York carries out fundamental research which is setting the agenda in the discipline; it also works extensively with industry, translating research results into usable solutions. Increasingly the Department's work is interdisciplinary.Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) group, University of York, England, UK
The HCI research group is one of the oldest in the UK. It is part of the University-wide HCI Group, which includes members in the departments of Psychology and Sociology. The Group undertakes research into the design and evaluation of interactive systems from both theoretical and applied perspectives. The group has a highly interdisciplinary approach drawing on methodologies from anthropology, computer science, mathematics, psychology and sociology.
