Welcome to my GitHub profile. I primarily use this account for research projects and teaching materials.

My research spans cognitive, social, and computational sciences. I'm particularly interested in modeling human and technical aspects of collaboration in knowledge work domains that produce technological innovations. Currently, I work with my collaborators to understand and enhance team-basesd scientific computing.

I also have a strong interest in ethics, epistemology, and systems theory in relation to computational research and development, which led me to complete extensive graduate coursework on these topics and also informed my dissertation research examining participation decisions and corporatization in free/libre and open source software project ecosystems. In this work, I identified leverage points for greater diversity in service of greater equity and innovation in collective knowledge production.

If any of the above topics are of interest to you, please feel free to contact me (onewton at sigsoft dot org) about potential collaborations and research ideas.
