Biography

I am Professor of Networked and Sensing Systems at Bournemouth University (U.K.), specialising in future and emerging paradigms of networks and networked systems. Previously, I spent 3.5 years as a postdoctoral researcher at University of Geneva (CH) under the prestigious Swiss Government Excellence Scholarship for Foreign Researchers.

I am the founding Program Leader of the three IoT Master courses offered in BU; namely, MSc in Internet of Things, MSc in IoT with Cyber Securtiy, and MSc in IoT with Data Analytics having played a key role in designing and developing the three programmes. I have also founded and lead the BU Open Innovation Lab (OIL) - an R&D lab focusing on emerging technologies, such as Internet of Things, and their role as key technological enablers for innovation. I am also a founding member of the Future & Complex Networks (FlexNet) research group.

In the International landscape, I lead the BU delegation at the International Telecommunication Union (ITU-T). In 2025 I joined the national delegation of Greece...
