Hi,
I am currently working as a Research Associate (RA)
within the Information Management
Group at the School of Computer Science of the University of Manchester. Prior to my
RA position I did an MPhil at the department under the supervision of Prof. Carole GOBLE
I had my MSc, and BSc degrees from Middle East Technical University in Turkey.
My work concentrates around the applications of Semantic Web technologies
to middleware activities in the distributed environments such as web services
and service oriented Grid computing. As part of my research at IMG I have
worked in the UK e-Science project myGrid
and currently working in the EU-IST project OntoGrid.
Details of the work that I and my colleagues have done in these projects can be
found in the following publications.
