Welcome to my NEW website. This website is currently redesigned and will be fully updated by early September 2010. Thanks for visiting.
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 605 Econ@Tel: “A Telecommunications Economics COST Network”, aiming to contribute to the action’s activities and further enhance my research development.
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
