Research Interests

My broad research theme is that of adaptive and evolutionary information systems - examining the ongoing dynamics integrating people, organisation, process, information and technology. My analytical 'lens' is that of Complex Adaptive Systems (CAS). Consequently, I have research interests related to data, information, knowledge, intelligence, cognition and learning alongside other forces/mechanisms/technologies that enable adaptation and evolution (in both technological and social realms).
