Email: stdjmax@gmail.com Office: Hauwei

I received an B.Eng degree in Computer & Electrical Engineering from the University of Cyprus and an M.Sc./ Ph.D in Mobile Communications from the University of Surrey.  I have been actively involved in interference and beam management of  5G and mmWave mobile netowrks . I am currently working as a research scientist in the Hauwei Technologies in Stockholm. One of our main targets is to make into reality a number of innovating research concepts.
