On the left there is an HTML rendering of my RDF profile made by Rhizomer.

My name is Rosa Gil. I was born in Barcelona (Spain) in 1972

I'm an associate professor at the Computer Science and Engineering Department of the Universitat de Lleida.

I have been involved in the Master courses in Universidad de Granada, Universidad de Zaragoza, Universitat Pompeu Fabra and Universidad de La Laguna.

You can reach me by telephone, mail or e-mail as specified at left.

My undergraduate studies were completed at Universitat de Barcelona (Physics Faculty) and my PhD Thesis in Computer Science was defended at Universitat Pompeu Fabra.

I have some experience in enterprise. I worked as a webmaster in Greens-HONDA for two years

I have visited and worked for:

  • one month in Trieste (Italy) in non-linear dynamics - ICTP-Trieste
  • three months in Brest (France) in ad-hoc applications - Ecole Politechnique
  • two months in Rome (Italy) in ontologies - CNR-Rome
  • two months in Galway (Ireland) in Semantic Data Mining - DERI-Galway
  • two months in Stanford (USA) in Emotions - Stanford
  • four months in Boston (USA) in DDBB - MIT
  • two months in Oslo (Norway) in Semantic Web - University of Oslo
  • two months in Auckland (New Zealand) in Blockchain - University of Auckland

More concretely, I'm conducing my research at the GRIHO Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) research group.


PhD Thesis

The PhD Thesis is entitled "Agents negotiating in a Semantic Web Architecture". It explores the possibilities of employing Knowledge Representation tools, concretely Semantic Web Ontologies, in order to build Digital Right Management (DRM) Systems. The main contribution of this work is the Copyright Ontology and the Semantic DRM System, SemDRMS where agents are able to negotiate in a network architecture
