About the Speaker
Andreas Pitsillides is a Professor in the Department of Computer Science, University of Cyprus, heads the Networks Research Laboratory (NetRL), and is appointed Visiting Professor at the University of Johannesburg, Department of Electrical & Electronic Engineering Science, Johannesburg, South Africa.
His broad research interests include communication networks, Nanonetworks and Software Defined Metamaterials for wireless communication (Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces and Programmable Wireless Environments), the Internet of Things, Smart Spaces (Home, Grid, City), and Internet technologies and their application in Mobile e-Services, especially e-health, and security.
Andreas has a particular interest in adapting tools from various fields of applied mathematics such as adaptive non-linear control theory, computational intelligence, game theory, and nature inspired techniques, to solve problems in communication networks. He has published over 350 refereed papers in flagship journals (eg IEEE, Elsevier, IFAC, Springer), international conferences and book chapters, 2 books (one edited), participated in over 40 research projects, funded by the European Commission (including VISORSURF [3]) and Cyprus, as principal or co-principal investigator, received several awards, including best paper, presented keynotes, invited lectures at major research organisations, short courses at international conferences and short courses to industry. He currently serves on several journal and conference executive committees.
