My research interests are focused around the following domains: * Applications of AI * Digital Identity * Blockchain, DLT, Smart Contracts, and Cryptocurrencies * Internet of Things I am interested in both technical as well as multidisciplinary aspects. Current specific technical research avenues in the above domains I am interested in include: * Unconventional virtual machine design * Unconventional architectural design * Easier programming abstractions and tools (programming paradigms, languages, verification) * Compliance tool generation using Generative AI, identifying trading patterns, illicit account detection Current multidisciplinary research avenues in the above domains I am interested in include: * Regulatory technology and the regulation of technology - especially emerging technology (AI, digital identity, Blockchain, NFTs, Metaverse etc) * Smart contracts vs Legal contracts and working towards Legal Smart Contracts Blockchain is a multi-disciplinary area that will affect many different domains, we have therefore set up a multi-disciplinary Masters in the Centre for Distributed Ledger Technologies. If you are interested in any of the above or related areas please get in touch!
