Welcome to my personal home page!

I am a PhD student at the Dept. of Informatics, at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki.
I am also a member of the ISKP (Intelligent Systems & Knowledge Processing) research group, which is a branch of the LPIS (Logic Programming & Intelligent Systems) group at the same university.

Education

I hold a BSc degree in Mathematics (2003) from the Dept. of Mathematics at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and an MSc in Computer Studies (2004) from the Dept. of Computer Science and Electronic Engineering at the University of Essex, United Kingdom.
CV available in English and in Greek.

Research

My research is focused on knowledge-based systems and the Semantic Web. More specifically, I study the existing methodologies and applications for managing defeasible logic rule bases in the Semantic Web environment, as well as research and develop new methods and technologies. The novel methodologies and techniques developed are applied to the deployment of an integrated reasoning system on Semantic Web data, which is called VDR-DEVICE. The basis of the implemented system is DR-DEVICE, which is a defeasible logic reasoner for the Semantic Web.
