Supervision
I supervise postgraduate and undergraduate projects, primarily focusing on the following topics:
- Software Engineering: Models, Methods, and Tools for optimizing the development of mobile and distributed systems
- Educational Technology: Developing app-supported interventions for engagement and education (see Code Cyprus)
- Other Topics: I occasionally work and have published work on topics such as: Machine Learning, Indoor Positioning, Gamification, etc.
