Dr. David C. Wilson is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Software and Information Systems at The University of North Carolina, Charlotte. Dr. Wilson's research centers around the development of intelligent software systems to bridge the gaps between human information needs and the computational resources available to meet them. It involves the coordination of intelligent systems techniques (artificial intelligence, machine learning, etc.) with geographic, multimedia, database, internet, and communications systems in order to elicit, enhance, apply, and present relevant task-based knowledge.
