Biography Summary:

I have extensive international academic and industrial experience. My research, teaching and mentoring is in business decision modeling related to information technologies. Research efforts are interdisciplinary embracing management science, communication systems and cooperative game theory. With over 60 research papers I made significant contributions to various aspects of network design.
