About me:
I have over a decade of experience at the intersection of research and development, building robust, scalable, and forward-looking technologies that bridge lab innovation and real-world deployments.
Currently, I lead the technical delivery of REASON-6G and guarDian projects at Digital Catapult, focusing on multi-domain orchestration, self-healing network architectures, and energy-efficient AI/ML operations. My work spans Cloud-native Platforms, Machine Learning and Federated Learning, and large-scale system deployments and optimisations.
In my previous roles, I architected secure IoT platforms, designed Federated drift detection frameworks, led Green AI research activities, delivered optimisation mechanism for vehicular communications, and more. I was also the solution architect and main developer to the award-winning UMBRELLA project, delivering a real-world, city-scale IoT backend platform.
Overall, I enjoy working with cutting-edge technologies, I am passionate about contributing to open-source projects and delivering ideas end-to-end, from the inception, to the validation at large-scale environments.
Research Interests:
My interests span around Cloud-native computing, Future Communication Networks, Machine Learning & Federated Learning, Sustainability deployments, Cybersecurity and Service/Network orchestration.
In the past, I worked in various areas around Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs), Cooperative Intelligent Transportation Systems (C-ITSs), Serverless Computing, Industrial Control Systems, and Digital Twins.
Open-source Projects:
Simulation framework for Connected Autonomous Vehicles “DRIVE: Digital twin for self-dRiving Intelligent VEhicles”.
A multi-threaded version of the popular INET framework, used for V2X simulation scenarios.
Framework for evaluating the energy consumption of Machine Learning models.
In the past:
- Principal Research Engineer at Toshiba Europe Ltd., working among other project on:
- Research Associate at the University of Bristol, working on:
- Research Assistant at the University of Bristol, working on:
I hold a “PhD in Vehicular Communications” from the University of Bristol, UK, where I worked with Prof Robert Piechocki and Dr Andrea Tassi. Before that, I got an “MSc in Wireless Communications and Signal Processing” from the University of Bristol, UK, and a “BSc in Computer Science” from Alexander Technological Institute of Thessaloniki, Greece, currently called International Hellenic University.
