research and modelling, with some relevance for society
I am the Research & Development Manager at Meaningfy since recently. Before that, I was an Associate Professor at the Department of Computer Science at the University of Cape Town, in Cape Town, South Africa. My research interests are in logic-based knowledge representation, ontology engineering and Ontology, and controlled natural languages for them; more information can be found on my homepage at http://www.meteck.org. I also have an author website that focuses on the four books I’ve written (and published), which can be accessed at https://mkeet.com.
The blog posts cover a range of topics and some of them are more related to my prior education and current research and research-related activties than others are. (In a nutshell: a PhD in Computer Science, a BSc(honours) 1st class in IT & Computing, an MA 1st class in Peace & Development Studies, and a MSc in Food Science free specialisation (Microbiology).
