About me

My name is Marios Isaakidis. I was born and spent my first years in Thessaloniki, a relaxed city in northern Greece. Currently, I am studying Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering and Information Technology at Cyprus University of Technology. During last summer, I was working as an android developer and was researching how we could use multi-touch surfaces for collaborative learning, ideas mapping and brainstorming at Cyprus Interaction Lab. For my final thesis I am working with the Serval Architecture, questioning if a DHT service resolution system could be useful to it's incremental deployment.
