I am planning to finish my PhD in the summer of 2012 and am currently looking for academic positions.

For my PhD, I am investigating strategies for the acquisition and processing of data on the Body-Centered Cubic (BCC) lattice. I am primarily interested in Scientific Visualization and Computer Graphics applications. Since both Vis and Graphics are diverse areas, my research is quite multidisciplinary and draws on other scientific avenues such as Signal Processing, Computational Fluid Dynamics, Computed Tomography and Partial Differential Equations.

Please check my CV for more details.

I have been working on how to help the users to overcome information overload by making use of intelligent (personalized) user interface, especially in the domain of information retrieval and visualization. The main assumption is that users will be able to benefit from the interaction with the system that can understand user needs actively. The users themselves are not just passive recipient, but an active player in this picture who are eagerly willing to manipulate and control the system. They are like collaborating with the system, by letting the system learn about themselves (personalization), perceiving the problem space and the state of the system’s learning (visualization), and commanding the system to move to the appropriate direction.

Therefore, I have been working on projects that strongly focus on fortifying user ability for personalized information retrieval and access problem. The examples are open (visual) user models, user profile mediation for personalized searching, named-entity based information search/browsing, and reference point-based spatial visualization for user models. Those works were published in major journals or conferences including IPM, IVS, and WWW.

In my dissertation I propose a distance-based multidimensional index structure for multimedia data supporting content-based similarity search in a collaborative environment. The index structure is capable of handling images as well as videos and the typical content-based retrieval strategies of each from within one general framework. I have used social network modeling to visualize the semantic relationships between multimedia data and analyzed their evolving roles when accessed by multiple users in a collaborative search environment. I am investigating to use the results of such analyses to optimize the different functionalities of the index structure. Currently, I am also in the process of embedding the proposed index structure into PostgreSQL database kernel and support range and k-NN search techniques from within the database framework.

I am working in the interdisciplinary area of Natural Computing and Systems Biology. As a computer scientist and mathematician I am developing and implementing new advanced mathematical and computational methods, algorithms and models to explain, interpret and analyze different biological processes.

On another hand, I am focused on the bio-inspired paradigms and computational models in Theoretical Computer Science. In particular, I am working in DNA-computing, Membrane computing and Cellular computing areas.

I am interseted in both applying my computer science and mathematical background in order to deepen our understanding of biological systems, and also, to develop biologicaly inspired models and methods in computer science and mathematics.

My research interests are:

• Computational biomodelling
• Discrete Mathematics
• Automata and formal languages
• Systems Biology
• Biocomputing
• Bioinformatics

My research topics are:

• Cellular computing:
- Modelling gene assembly in ciliates
• Theoretical Computer Science:
- Computability theory
- Automata and Formal language theory
• Computational systems biology:
