Konstantinos Barlas serves as a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Computer and Information Engineering within the School of Engineering at the University of West Attica. His academic career spans both Greek and international institutions, bringing specialized expertise in formal methods and mathematical logic to his teaching and research activities. Education: Diploma and Integrated Master from the School of Applied Mathematics and Physical Sciences, National Technical University of Athens (2006) PhD from the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, National Technical University of Athens (2018) with research focus on algebraic pattern specification Dr. Barlas' research centers on formal methods in computer science, with particular emphasis on algebraic specifications, formal verification, and mathematical logic. His work bridges theoretical computer science with practical applications in systems design and open standards development. His scholarly approach integrates mathematical rigor with software engineering principles to address complex specification challenges in computing systems. He has published 10-12 papers in international scientific journals and conferences, including contributions to NASA's Innovations in Systems and Software Engineering. His publication record demonstrates consistent engagement with formal methods communities and interdisciplinary applications of mathematical logic in computing. As an educator, Dr. Barlas teaches core mathematics courses for computer science students including Discrete Mathematics, Probability and Statistics, Mathematical Analysis I, and Linear Algebra. He serves as a scientific editor for the Greek publication 'Μαθηματικές Δομές για την Επιστήμη Υπολογιστών (Διακριτά μαθηματικά και εφαρμογές)'. His teaching philosophy emphasizes the foundational mathematical principles that underpin computer science education. Dr. Barlas maintains strong connections with open source software communities, utilizing Arch and Void Linux distributions with i3wm as his preferred tiling window manager. His technical interests extend to Raspberry Pi projects, and he has creative pursuits including a music project called 'A group of crows'. His intellectual interests span literary works exploring absurdism and circular reasoning, including 'Catch-22', 'The Dice Man', 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy', and 'Gödel, Escher, Bach'.
Blagoj Nenovski serves as Associate Professor at the Faculty of Law, Kichevo, within St. Kliment Ohridski University - Bitola. He teaches Informatics 1 and 2 for undergraduate studies and pioneered the ICT in Scientific Research course for doctoral programs. Elected to his current rank in 2020, he holds dual specializations in Informatics and ICT Application in Higher Education. His academic journey includes: Diploma in Engineering (2009) from Technical Faculty in Bitola (8.63 GPA) Master's in Informatics and Computer Engineering (2012) (10.00 GPA) PhD in Informatics and Computer Engineering (2020) (10.00 GPA) Nenovski's research spans Augmented Reality systems, digital banking transformation, and disinformation countermeasures. His AR work focuses on outdoor object recognition using NFT markers, while legal domain contributions include establishing an ICT Training Department for lawyers. Recent banking sector studies analyze digital services' competitive impact, and cross-national research examines problematic internet use patterns. Publication trends reveal increasing focus on disinformation threats (particularly deepfakes) and spatial exploration technologies since 2022, while maintaining strong output in banking digitization and educational informatics. His interdisciplinary approach consistently bridges technical ICT solutions with domain-specific applications. Though no formal awards are documented, Nenovski actively serves on thesis evaluation committees, curriculum development boards for Law and Technology programs, and multiple university governance committees including elections oversight and study guide creation. He has coordinated research projects and provided peer review services for academic publications. As coordinator of the Department for ICT Training of Lawyers since 2021, he leads initiatives at the ICT-law intersection, developing digital resources for legal professionals. His technical proficiency spans Windows/Linux systems, Spring Boot, React, JavaScript, and network security frameworks, supporting both academic innovation and administrative responsibilities including OJS system management for university journals.
