Research Expertise
Description
My research interests lie in the study of complexity and communication in technical, natural, and social systems. - Complex systems science, cyber-physical systems, control and analysis of large, complex networks in different domains of engineering, biology, and linguistics. - Control and optimisation of complex systems using local, incomplete information, distributed structures and energy-efficient techniques. Study of cyber-physical systems in a complex setting, swarms of autonomous devices. - Unconventional computing and communications as well as future computing and communication paradigms, including but not limited to reversible computation and reversibility as an engineering principle, quantum computation and communications, molecular communications. - Policy, language, and economy of socio-technical interactions. These are intimately tied with the E3 challenges at Trinity: Communities are complex networks, in complex economical, communication, and policy relationships with technology. Production is about control. Resources in circular economy are subject to reversibility and so are the complex networks in our environment. Wellbeing is increasingly dependent on unconventional (e.g. molecular) communications. Data is inherently complex, and carries biases and effects of policy, language, economy.Projects
- Title
- Complexity and Control of Distributed Massive MIMO (COCODIMM)
- Summary
- Massive MIMO in both, its co-located and distributed variant, has become an important part of future 5G plans so it needs to be understood well to be fully utilised. The nature and the scale of massive MIMO systems both imply existence of complexity observed in complex systems science manner, especially in the distributed massive MIMO case. Complexity in massive MIMO has not been investigated so far, therefore this research aims to fill this gap and grasp its complexity features by providing quantification, qualification and useful models of massive MIMO as a complex system. As a natural extension, this research also deals with devising control algorithms based on Massive MIMO models developed from complexity standpoint, verification of these algorithms and their implementation on real Massive MIMO systems, together with a thorough mathematical analysis using tools from control theory. Finally, this research will introduce reversible computing in Massive MIMO, investigating its effects on control and performance. Results of the research are diverse, ranging from publications explaining complexity in Massive MIMO setting, over novel tools and metrics developed for the specific application of complex systems science to Massive MIMO, to functional controller prototypes based on algorithms developed. This in turn represents the multidisciplinarity of the proposal as well, combining telecommunication systems with complex systems science, control theory, but also embedded system design and computer science. This proposal also includes some promising preliminary results of cellular automaton modelling and antenna selection control of Massive MIMO system.

- ARTSFORMATION
- Summary
- Digitalisation has spread to every aspect of life. Recently, this transformation has been associated with serious security risks and impacted the privacy of citizens and the data of millions of users. The EU-funded ARTSFORMATION project explores how the arts can contribute towards a more sustainable and inclusive digital future in Europe. More specifically, the project aspires to boost Europe's ability to use the arts in tackling complex technological transformations, such as data ethics and quality, artificial intelligence, unequal participation opportunities in the digital economy, and more. Through research on the transformational capabilities of the arts, and by involving actors from many different sectors of society, the project intends to mobilise the arts towards a better and more participatory digital world.
