Lefteris Mamatas

Who am I

I was born in Alexandroupolis (Greece) at 7/1/1979. I graduated in 2003 from the Dept of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Demokritos University of Thrace. Since then, I am a Phd student in the Demokritos University of Thrace under the advisory of Prof. Vassilis Tsaoussidis. My research interests are focused on congestion control in packet networks. Additionally, I am a founder of Araneous Internet Services (an IT company situated in North Greece - www.araneous.gr). I have 7 years of professional programming experience using different computer environments (Linux / Unix / Windows). I worked for DoCoMo Eurolabs (Munich) in the research project Ambient Networks, from May to Oktober of 2005.
