In 2016 he was awarded a Senior Distinguished Research Fellowship by Ulster University.

His research interests include the development and evaluation of technologies to support pervasive healthcare within smart environments. Specifically, this has involved research in the topics of mobile based reminding solutions, activity recognition and behaviour modelling and more recently technology adoption modelling. He has published over 700 papers in these areas and currently has an h-index of 54.
