Academic Supervision
I’ve supervised/co-supervised over 20 BSc/MSc dissertations and projects, some of which were considered outstanding projects in software engineering (IoT, Smart Homes), and a project which became an embedded feature in the Microsoft Visual Studio. These projects were part of an alliance between UCL and organisations such as Microsoft, Satalia, Credit Suisse.
I am currently supervising a PhD student in Biomedical Engineering working towards the early detection of lung cancer using Deep Neural Networks.
Ph.D. Thesis
The Thesis
The thesis provides a systematic framework to design of large and highly interconnected data infrastructures which are provided and supported by multiple stakeholders. A closed-loop supply chain model is designed and managed to explicitly consider the activities and processes that enables data and ML to be city-wide leveraged.
Sponsorship and Awards
This thesis was sponsored by the EPSRC, and received fellowships and awards from:


Thesis Impact
This thesis pioneered the concept of data as infrastructure for smart cities. It was used to design Urban platforms in the European Union (40+ cities), and the City Data Strategy of London Government. Chapters of this thesis have been published as a book to drive the industry on smart cities.
