George D. Stamoulis

George D. Stamoulis is a Professor and Head of the Department of Informatics at the Athens University of Economics and Business (AUEB), where he also co-leads the Network Economics and Services research group. His academic credentials include a Diploma in Electrical and Mechanical Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens, and both M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from MIT.

Education:

• Diploma in Electrical and Mechanical Engineering, National Technical University of Athens
• M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)
• Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)

Research Focus: Professor Stamoulis specializes in telecommunications economics, cloud resource management, and demand response systems. His work develops economic mechanisms for internet traffic optimization, cloud federation, and smart grid applications. He investigates auction theory for spectrum allocation, adwords trading, and sensor data markets while analyzing regulatory frameworks for telecommunications and power systems. His research bridges theoretical game-theoretic models with practical implementations in networked environments.

Publication Trends: His 2012-2015 publications reveal consistent focus on applying game theory to real-world resource allocation challenges. Key themes include incentive design for demand response contracts, economic modeling of cloud federation, and auction mechanisms for digital markets. These works demonstrate interdisciplinary approaches combining network engineering, microeconomics, and regulatory policy analysis.

Research Projects: He leads significant EU-funded initiatives including 5G Exchange (2015-2018) for next-generation networking, OPTi (2015-2017) for district heating optimization, NOBEL GRID (2015-2018) for smart grid business models, and SmartenIT (2012-2015) for energy-efficient internet traffic management.

Research Leadership: As co-leader of AUEB's Network Economics and Services group, he directs research on economic mechanisms for digital resource allocation, with applications spanning telecommunications, cloud computing, and smart energy systems.
