A lecturer at the Department of Information System Engineering, Ben-Gurion University, Israel

Short bio: I finished my Ph.D. in the Computer Science Department at Bar-Ilan University in 2006. My advisor was Gal A. Kaminka. The topic of my Ph.D. thesis was "Diagnosing multi-Agent Systems". In my thesis I implemented ideas from Model-Based Diagnosis in Multi-Agent Systems. You can find out an abstract of my Ph.D. by clicking here. In 2007 I was a postdoctoral fellow at the lab of Sarit Kraus and Gal Kaminka working on a joint project with Samsung Telecom Research Israel: developing practical voting procedures to reduce communication. Then in 2008 I had a postdoctoral position at the AI Research group (part of the Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences), working with Prof. Barbara Grosz.

  1. Model-Based Diagnosis. 
  2. Multi-Agent Systems.
  3. Voting Procedures in Distributed Systems.
