I am a Research Fellow at Kios Research Center for Intelligent Systems and Networks of the University of Cyprus. My current research activities focus on autonomic networking for wireless networks and critical infrastructure systems (CIS).
I also collaborate with the University of Nicosia (Cyprus) as an Adjunct Lecturer, while I have worked as collaborating teaching personnel (“Expert Scientist”) at the Cyprus University of Technology. My independent teaching topics relate to Electronic and Computer Engineering, including principles of telecommunications, wireless/cellular communications, programming principles and other.
I am a member of the Management Committee of COST Action IS0605 Econ@Tel: “A Telecommunications Economics COST Network” and also participate in COST Action IC0806 IntelliCIS: “Intelligent Monitoring, Control and Security of Critical Infrastructure Systems”
I have been awarded the Ph.D. title from the Centre for Communications Systems Research (CCSR) of the University of Surrey (Guildford, UK). My doctoral studies were completed with the defence of my PhD thesis on “Policy-Based Self-Management of Wireless Ad Hoc Networks”. Previously, I have received a Diploma in Electrical and Computer Engineering (Dipl.-Ing.) from the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA), acquiring a strong background in ICT (Information and Communications Technology).
My research interests include among other:
- Autonomic networking for wireless networks
- Distributed policy-based management (PBM)
- Critical infrastructure systems (CIS) and their protection (CIP)
- Self-management and autonomic networking
- Wireless mesh and mobile ad hoc networks (MANET)
- Frameworks for network and service management
- Convergence technologies and networks
- Context-awareness and ubiquitous/pervasive systems
- Quality of Service (QoS) for wireless networks
- Next Generation Networks (NGN) and Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC)
- P2P and emerging paradigms for network management
