Short Bio
|
Judy Kay is Professor of Computer Science at the
School of Information Technologies
(formerly, Basser Department of Computer
Science) at the University of Sydney.
She is a principal in the
CHAI: Computer Human Adapted Interaction Research Group,
leading research in advanced technologies for human computer interaction,
supporting personalisation, pervasive and mobile interaction.
Her visions it to support a highly personalised way for people
to interact with the computers that they carry, those
embedded within the environment as well as desktop computers.
CHAI researchers are exploring ways to ensure that people can readily
make use of these as part of their own personalised augmented memory.
We aim to put a personalisation layer over these devices so that each
person can make the most effective use of them for key aspects of their lives.
Critical to this vision is that the user should always feel a sense
of control over the personalisation.
She creates new tools for interaction in support of
lifelong learning, collaboration and personalised smart services.
Examples of exploring novel interfaces for ubiquitous computing include
new software for surface computing that enables people
to interact at a table,
new ways to access files when collaborating at a tabletop
and
the Keep-in-Touch communication appliance.
Her personalisation research has created a framework for
building personalised applications which enable the user to scrutinise and
control the whole process of personalisation.
The core technologies are the Personis user modelling server and Personis-Lite.
She has extensive
publications ,
in venues such as the conferences,
Pervasive,
Computer Human Interaction (CHI),
User Modeling (UM, AH, UMAP)
and journals, such as
IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering,
International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education,
User Modeling and User-Adapted Interaction,
Personal and Ubiquitous Computing,
Communications of the ACM,
Computer Science Education.

Technology for Social Isolation,
Howard Dahdah, Computerworld Australia,
A touch screen device that aims to address the issue of social isolation in
Australia's elderly population, is nearing commercial roll out. The device, called
Keep in Touch is the brainchild of Bob Kummerfeld, associate professor at Sydney
