Coordinated the LEAD – 6th framework project, and participated as local project leader in 6 other EU projects since 2000. He was project manager in 3 EU-funded Research and Innovation projects and scientific coordinator in the legendary KP-Lab project. Participated in the design of 3 ICT environments for supporting argumentation (Digalo, Drew, and Co FFEE). Was visiting scientist at the universities of Poitiers, St. Etienne, and Lyon. He is an expert in qualitative and quantitative techniques for analysing interactions during collaborative learning activities. Experienced in teacher training workshops. His role in the CS-AWARE project was the elaboration of the user perspective, which includes their organisation, their objectives and expectations, conducting and analysing usability trials, and the evaluation of the actual impact of the technology on the users and their organisation. He is currently the director of Wise & Munro Learning Research (est. 2008), dedicated to supporting users in the design and appropriation of interactive technology. His latest main publication is a monograph on collaboration (together with Michael Baker). Dr Thomas Schaberreiter earned his Master’s degree in Telematics with distinction from the Graz University of Technology (Austria) in 2009. In 2013, he received his Ph D as a double degree from the University of Oulu (Finland) and the University of Luxembourg. During his Ph D studies he was working at the Public Research Centre Henri Tudor in Luxembourg. His Ph D topic was centred around Critical Infrastructure Protection, with a focus on proposing an on­line risk monitoring and prediction framework that highlights the interdependencies among critical infrastructures and the diversity of critical infrastructure sectors, based on a Bayesian model. Thomas has been working at the Oulu University Secure Programming Group (OUSPG) as a post­doctoral researcher till 2016, and a post-doctoral researcher at the Multimedia Information Systems (MIS) research group of the University of Vienna ­ Faculty of Computer Science till 12/2020. His current professional interest lies in the security of complex systems and networks.
