Thesis title: Communication Patterns around Multi-touch Digital Tabletop in the UK, India and Finland. Advisor : Prof. Sriram Subramanian I led and managed world class research while collaborating with multi-country research organizations. My research is multi-disciplinary, combining areas such as human-computer interaction (HCI), education and communication.Based on a series of holistic and iterative user consultations, I designed applications that were ecologically appropriate for multiple countries.
