Stephen Cranefield
Professor
Information Science
Otago University
New Zealand
Biography
I studied Mathematics and Computer Science at the University of Otago, graduating with a BSc(Hons) in Mathematics, and then gained a PhD from the University of Edinburgh, studying in the Department of Artificial Intelligence (now merged into the School of Informatics). After a postdoctoral fellowship in the Department of Computer Science at Otago, I had a short-term position in the Computer Science department at Massey University, and then joined Otago's Information Science department in 1994.
Research Interest
My research interests include multi-agent systems (particularly institutions and norms for open societies of agents, and tool support for agent communication languages, interaction protocols and ontologies), the Semantic Web, and software technologies for next generation telecommunications network service provision.
