Dr. Stephen R. Gulliver is a Lecturer in the School of Information Systems, Computing and Mathematics at Brunel University, West London, UK. He received a BEng. (Hons) degree in Microelectronics, an MSc. degree (Distributed Information Systems) and a PhD in 1999, 2001, and 2004 respectively. His research interests cover human factors and include the perceptual, usability, accessibility, and information acquisition aspects of computer and multimedia systems. Current studies incorporate eye-tracking, 3D model realisation, attention analysis, and display adaptation.
