Starting September 14, 2009, I'm a postdoc with Prof. Jason Hong at Carnegie Mellon University Human-Computer Interaction Institute. Check out my new web page at CMU. This page is no longer actively maintained.

I graduated as Doctor of Science in Technology on June 9, 2009, after succesfully defending my doctoral dissertation on Practical Privacy Enhancing Technologies for Mobile Systems on June 5, 2009.

I gave a lecture on "Privacy for Mobile Systems" in University of Lancaster on March 19, 2009. Slides available (6.6 MB).

I presented our work on Privacy-Preserving 802.11 Access-Point Discovery in Second ACM Conference on Wireless Network Security (WiSec'09). Slides available.
