Publications

You can choose to view publications ordered by research area, by year only, or by type of publication.

Find my publications at GoogleScholar, DBLP, ACM.

To make it easier for you to determine my contribution to each of the publications below, I have used a simple tagging mechanism, classifying research and writing contribution into low, medium, and high. This is based on a suggestion by Awais Rashid. To learn more about how to interpret each of these levels, click here.
