Autonomic Intelligence Evolved Cooperative Networking

DR. MICHAL WODCZAK holds a PhD in Telecommunications from Poznan University of Technology, obtained under the umbrella of European Union Sixth Framework Programme, as well as an Executive MBA from Aalto University School of Business, distinguished by the Triple Crown of AACSB, AMBA, and EQUIS accreditations. In this respect, advancing a double industrial and academic expertise of a complementary nature, he is known, among others, to have run standardisation activities as Vice Chairman and Rapporteur of ETSI ISG AFI, as well as serving as Editorial Board Member of IEEE CTN, respectively.
