Dr. Kathleen Keogh
Deputy Head of Information Technology
Kathleen completed her PHD at the University of Melbourne, which proposed a meta-model for designing and creating multi-agent system organisations capable of improvisation and coordination.
Kathleen Keogh’s research involves intelligent software agents, with particular emphasis on agents that are designed based on beliefs, desires, goals and intentions. Kathleen is exploring how agents can work together (to behave like people, model people and support people).
Kathleen is exploring how agents can work together in organisations when the situation demands that agents improvise based on plans provided at design time. The work is motivated by emergency management simulations where people could benefit from intelligent agents behaving like people or working with people.
Kathleen is also involved in research using AI and data science to model how children learn language through exposure to books.
Kathleen is a Senior Lecturer in information technology at Federation University Australia and coordinator of the Bachelor of IT professional practice course. Kathleen is the Ballarat Chapter Lead for IBM New to Z. In this role, Kathleen provides opportunities for industry networking events with people working on mainframe computers including interns and students.
Kathleen also manages industry partnerships supporting co-operative education in Information Technology.
