I am a faculty member in the Department of Management and Economics at the Open University of Israel. Previously, I was a Research Scientist at Yahoo! Research (New York, California) and a post-doc at Bell Labs (Ireland, New Jersey). I received my Ph.D. and M.Sc. in Computer Science from the Hebrew University. Recently my work was kindly funded (444,627 EUR) by the European Commission's Horizon 2020 Grant # 653449. My research has led me to be the principle inventor of 14 U.S. patents.
