Normaziah Abdul Aziz obtained her BSc in Computer Science from the University of South Carolina, USA under a Petronas scholarship. Upon returning, she worked at the Central Bank of Malaysia (Bank Negara Malaysia). She continued her studies in MSc in Computer Science at University Kebangsaan Malaysia and later joined MIMOS in 1989. She was then offered the Asia Development Bank (ADB) scholarship representing MIMOS to pursue her Ph.D at the Department of Artificial Intelligence, University of Edinburgh, Scotland. Her research then was in the area of Cognitive Modelling with a thesis entitled "The Use of Belief Revision to Model Contradiction and Entrenched Misconceptions".
During her 18 years at MIMOS, she had worked on RMKe-7, 8 and 9 projects related to Intelligent Learning Environment and Language Technology which included Machine Translation and Speech Processing. She has a patent in the US patent office on "An English-Malay Translation Memory using Phrase Look-up Approach and Word Alignment Information Database" with Patent number WO/2009/002141, December 2008.
She later joined the academic world as an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM). Since 2009, she has been the Regional Contest Director for the ACM International Collegiate Programming Contest (ACM-ICPC) by the ICPC Headquarters in Baylor, Texas. She had headed the IIUM team to the ACM ICPC World Finals in Warsaw 2012 as one of the top-100 best university teams qualified.
Presently, her research work is in the area of Information Security, particularly in Digital Evidence Forensics and Secure Coding. She is also passionate about Computational Thinking where she co-organizes the Malaysian Computing Olympiad, Kangaroo Math Competition (Malaysia) and Beaver Informatics Competition (Malaysia) with a few key individuals in these initiatives.
