Short Profile

Amir is an associate researcher and lecturer working at Sheffield Hallam University and one of the organizers of the Distributed-PD workshop and panel series. His research is mainly in the area of interaction design, PD and CSCW. Two of the recent projects that he was involved with were the European Guardians and ViewFinder projects where he was part of a distributed team designing advanced human-robot interaction techniques for emergency services.

As part of his PhD, he developed an electronic paper prototyping tool (Gabbeh) offering mediating representations to facilitate interactions among stakeholders in a distributed design team. In that context he has an interest in how designers and users interact using models and the comment facility offered by such tools as the primary mediating representation in a distributed design team or co-located design team around a multi-user interactive table environment.
