Introduction
I am a fourth year graduate student at the University of Maryland at College Park. I am currently busy balancing proposal writing with getting papers out to conferences.
I am affiliated with the Human Computer Interaction Laboratory (HCIL) here at UMD. Accordingly, my interests are in HCI. Here are some of things I'm working on at the moment:
- Improved electronic reading devices
- Automated tracking of how people interact with paper (primarily reading)
- Design and testing of interfaces for pen-based computing
- Power consumption-aware interfaces
- Digital document navigation
My advisor, Francois Guimbretiere, serves the important function of telling me my research ideas have already been done by [insert person/group], Y1 years ago.
1 So, at first Y was about 10 years, but now I'm getting closer to 5. I hope that by the time I graduate Y < 0.
