SUMMARY OF QUALIFICATIONS



During his studies in Automations Engineering, Mr. Dimitris Liapis focused on embedded systems and low – level programming in assembly and C. He developed projects as “Temperature controlling with use of the microprocessor T89C51RD2 and P.I.D. controlling”, “Programming the microprocessor T89C51RD2 in C language”, “Design and implementation of a low frequency signal generator and PWM production” and the subject of his dissertation was “Research, design and development of an RS-485 network of microcontrollers protecting areas from disruption, using local and central inspection”.
His professional experience started in 2003 in Intracom SA, where he worked as a software developer and electronics engineer, developing drivers for embedded devices as well as high – level applications in Java and supporting the hardware lab of the New Technologies department. He participated in several projects of the company including iFMS, and the design of the Etherbox board.
In 2006, he joined the A.I.T. research group of Broadband Wireless and Sensor Networks. His main research areas are Low – Range Wireless Communications, Location – Based services and Indoor Localization.
Furthermore, since 2006 he attends A.I.T.’s Master of Science In Information & Telecommunications Technologies (MSITT) which is expected to finish during 2008. One of the recent projects in the context of his Master studies was developing the “Protocol of embedded system’s security” with Dr. Nikos Komninos as supervisor. The subject of the project was to build a light – weight security protocol that enhances the networking part of embedded devices.
