About me

Hi, my name is Adrian Clear and I'm a Ph.D. student in the Systems Research Group at UCD Dublin in Ireland. My Ph.D. is focused on designing and engineering context-aware computing systems. Particularly, I'm looking at tools and methodologies that support end-to-end development of these systems.

My research interests include pervasive computing, context-awareness, data aggregation and abstraction, context modelling and semantics, software engineering, information visualisation, human computer interaction and complex adaptive systems.

I am currently writing my Ph.D. thesis and will submit in October, 2009. I'm beginning a Postdoctorate with Orange Labs, Grenoble in November in the area of sensor data fusion.

When I'm not researchin' the days away, I like playing (and watching) football, running, hiking, golf, reading, watching movies, listening to music and cooking.
