I was trained in Mathematics and Philosophy and then moved into Computer Science. I currently lecture and research in Computer Science at the University of Exeter, UK. where I have worked mainly in Knowledge Representation, with a focus on temporal and spatial issues. I have a particular interest in ontological problems arising in geographical knowledge representation.
