PhD

In my first year (at Liverpool University) I started off looking into the affect of delta ray emission in the forward trackers at H1. I then went to DESY to study the hadronisation of open charm in deep inelastic scattering. I became rather more interested in emerging computing technologies and took a job at Manchester Computing before the end of my PhD at Liverpool.

I continued my studies (at the University of Manchester) focussing on the computing and specialising in Grid technologies, finally studying the use of AFS in High Energy Particle Physics grids. I did this using the BaBar Experiment as an examplar.

I submitted my Thesis entitled "Using AFS As A Distributed File System For Computational And Data Grids In High Energy Physics" July 2005.
