Curriculum Vitae:

Jun Liu received the B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees in applied mathematics in 1993 and 1996, respectively, and the Ph.D. degree in Information Engineering and Control in 1999 from the Southwest Jiaotong University, Chengdu, China.

He is currently a Lecturer in Computer Science at the School of Computing and Mathematics, University of Ulster at Jordanstown, Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland, U.K. Prior to his current appointment, he worked as a Research Fellow at Manchester Business School of the University of Manchester, Manchester, U.K. He also worked as a postdoctoral researh fellow staff member at the Belgian Nuclear Research Center (SCK · CEN), Mol, Belgium (March 2000 to February 2002).

He is now the core member of Computer Science Research Institute in University of Ulster. He has published over 60 papers in peer-reviewed international journals and conferences, and 2 books as a co-author (one by Springer). He served in the programme committees of about 8 international conferences. He was a invited speaker at a number of international conferences and workshop. He is the registered reviewer of over 10 international journals.
