Biography

Timothy J. Norman read Engineering at the University of Wales Swansea (1992), then graduated from University of London (University College) in 1997 with a Ph.D. in Computer Science. He worked as a postdoctoral research assistant at Queen Mary, University of London until 1999, at which time he was appointed as Lecturer in Computing Science at the University of Aberdeen. He was promoted to Senior Lecturer in 2005, Reader in 2008 and in 2009 to a personal chair as Professor of Computing Science.

Research Interests

Professor Norman’s principal research field is multi-agent systems, with a focus on computational models of policies (or norms), trust, and argumentation. He is interested in how systems may be designed and analysed for policy compliance, and how these techniques can be applied to support for human decision making (e.g. in collaborative planning teams). His interests in computational models of argumentation include dialogue strategy and formal models of delegation.
