Background
I joined Nokia Research Center in 1995. Since then I have participated in several projects, topics ranging from network management and distributed object technologies to communication protocol modeling. Recently my activities have been related to various mobile application prototypes.
I received my M.Sc. in Computer Science from Helsinki University of Technology in 1996, and have later done some postgraduate studies there too on telecommunication software and applications.
