I am a Full Professor at the Department of Informatics and I also lead the Gemini Center for Trustworthy and Sustainable AI at the University of Oslo. I am also a Guest Professor Department of Computer Science at Karlstad University. I received the B.S. and M.S. degrees in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from Middle East Technical University, Turkey, and Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Tandon School of Engineering at New York University.

I co-lead the “Sustainable Immersive Networking Laboratory (SINLAB)”, focusing on investigating sustainable applications of networked digital infrastructure as well as sustainability of the digital infrastructure itself. SINLAB adopts an interdisciplinary approach that spans different fields including emerging applications in different domains (including education, health, industry, etc…), mobile networks including 5G and Beyond, robotics and machine learning, and social sciences. Currently, I am involved in HEU IMAGINE-B5G project to test novel applications and technologies for B5G networks, with a special focus on immersive communications and eXtended Reality.
