Blaine Alexander Price (born 1964) is a Professor of Computing at The Open University in the United Kingdom. Price was born in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. He obtained his BSc in Computing and Information Science from Queen's University in 1988 and his MSc in Computer Science from the University of Toronto in 1991. Career In 1989, Price was a Summer Research Intern in Apple Computer's Human Interface Group. In 1990 he completed his MSc dissertation on automatic animation of concurrent programs and began his PhD research in Software visualisation with Ronald Baecker. In 1991 he took a one-year assignment in Open University's Human Cognition Research Lab (now the Knowledge Media Institute) and three years later he was appointed to a temporary contract as a lecturer in Computing in the Faculty of Mathematics. The next year he was made a permanent Lecturer and launched a 4-year program to transform the delivery of Open University materials from paper and surface postal delivery to electronic delivery. He produced the first automatic system for large scale processing of student electronic assignment submission and return. In 1997 he took a 2-year secondment as Chief Systems Strategist to the[Knowledge Media Institute. Upon returning to the renamed Faculty of Mathematics and Computing he resumed his academic role and conducted research in the use of robotics in teaching computing. In 2007 he launched the Open University's first course in Forensic Computing. The current version of this module is M812 Digital Forensics. In 2004 he began conducting research into privacy with a focus on mobile computing and lifelogging in particular. More recently he has concentrated on applications of wearables and IoT technologies on health and wellbeing. He continues to supervise students and conduct research in this area and is a Principal Investigator and Co-Investigator on a number of large projects funded by the UK and European Research Councils. Blaine has always taken a human-centred approach to computing. He is interested in privacy in mobile and ubiquitous computing and in lifelogging technologies in particular, including both personal lifelogging and logging energy and resource usage. He has supervised PhD students in the areas of privacy, sustainable computing, digital forensics and more recently wearable and ubiquitous computing applied to healthcare. He was principal investigator on a number of Knowledge Transfer Partnership projects with industrial partners from 2009 to 2011, a co-investigator on the £1.2M EPSRC PRiMMA (Privacy Rights Management for Mobile Applications) from
