Description:
Prof. Dr. Ing. Theo Kanter received his MSc in electrical engineering, cum laude, from the University of Advanced Technology, the Netherlands in 1976. He completed studies in computer science and artificial intelligence at the University of Technology in Linköping in Sweden (1986, 1987), before pursuing a technical doctorate in computer communications, which he earned from the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden in 2001. During his career, Theo has held a number of leading positions in telecommunications research, earlier at Ellemtel AB, Sweden (1996-1999), where he led research in agent-based service architectures for context-aware voice service on the Internet and holds a number of patents in this area. Between 1999 and 2007, he was a senior scientist at Ericsson Research in the area of Service Layer Technologies focusing on Adaptive Mobile Services and Mobile Presence, contributing to standardization in the Open Mobile Alliance (OMA) and Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). From September 2007, Theo holds the position of full Professor of Computer Science –Distributed Systems within the Department of Information Technology and Media at the Mid-Sweden University.
