GridCOMP European FP6 Project, 2006-2009 and Harrow School of Computer Science, University of Westminster, UK

Working in the work-package responsible for the development of an Integrated Development Environment for component-based Grid systems.

My responsibilities focus on the sub-systems of ADL (Architecture Description Language) Parsing, ADL and Source Code Generation, Node Resource Monitoring, Component Monitoring, and sub-system integration.

Harrow School of Computer Science, University of Westminster, UK

Participating in the specification, design and development of a Node Resource Monitor (NRM) for a components-based Grid system based on the CoreGRID Component Model.

Involvement in the design and testing of an Eclipse plug-in for an IDE to enable visual composition, deployment and monitoring of components. Involved in the integration of the NRM into the IDE.

Sole designer and developer of a complete Web-based Research Content Management System (CMS) for the Research Groups of the University of Westminster.

I have written a technical note on the specification of the interfaces and the implementation details and considerations of the NRM.

I have completed the Research CMS architecture and design and initial (but fully functional) implementation. Provided the foundations for easy future expansion and upgrades.

Institute of System Architecture and Institute of Grid Systems, Tools, and Environments, CoreGRID European FP6 Network of Excellence, 2004-2008

Participating in a team with the objective of specifying, designing, and prototyping a components-based Lightweight Grid platform.

Also, participating in a team for the advancement of reconfigurable and adaptive systems.

I have contributed on the lightweight platform design and specification, the mapping of heavy scientific applications to grid infrastructures, and the identification of core platform services.

I have contributed a Dynamic Service Aggregation framework for an adaptive “look-ahead” service pooling
system.

I have contributed on the automatic adaptation techniques.

I have contributed on five technical reports, regarding lightweight grid infrastructures, and grid system
architectures.

I have participated on the vast majority of project-wide and institute-wide meetings, and have given five workshop presentations.

I have helped in the organization of the Institute of Grid Systems, Tools, and Environments second plenary meeting in London.

I received a scholarship to participate and assist in the organization of the 20th Open Grid Forum, May 2007 in Manchester, as a member of CoreGRID, which is one of the OGF sponsors.

University of Northern Virginia and University of Sunderland (London Campuses)

Teaching computer science subjects to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd year undergraduate students in small classes of up to 5 students. Marking exam papers and coursework.

I have successfully supervised and mentored 3 final year students through their final project design, implementation, testing, reporting, and defense.

Harrow School of Computer Science, University of Westminster, UK

Teaching programming and software development to 1st and 2nd year undergraduate students in classes
of 15-20. Managing attendance records and exams invigilation. Marking exam papers and coursework.

I gave a one day workshop on the fundamentals of object-oriented programming and Visual Basic (28th
Sep 2004).

Maintained one of the highest student pass rates (~70%).

Successfully mentored and supervised 2 final year students through the design, implementation, testing, and reporting of their projects.
