including human centered models of personal data management. In addition, Anette
has provided national expertise with regard to her areas of interest. She is currently
involved in the Academy‐funded project “Information Security of Location Estimation
and Navigation Applications (INSURE)”.
Anna Brunstrom received her BSc in Computer Science and Mathematics from
Pepperdine University, CA, in 1991, and her MSc and PhD in Computer Science from
the College of William & Mary, VA, in 1993 and 1996, respectively. She joined the
Department of Computer Science at Karlstad University, Sweden, in 1996, where she is
currently a Full Professor and Research Manager for the Distributed Systems and
Communications Research Group. Her research interests include transport protocol
design, techniques for low latency Internet communication, cross‐layer interactions,
multi‐path communication and performance evaluation of mobile broadband systems.
She has led several externally funded research projects within these areas and served as
the principal investigator and coordinator from Karlstad University (KaU) in additional
national and international projects. She is currently the KaU principal investigator
within two EU H2020 projects, the NEAT project aiming to design a new, evolutive API
and transport‐layer architecture for the Internet, and the MONROE project proposing
to design and operate a European transnational open platform for independent, multi‐
homed, large‐scale monitoring and assessment of mobile broadband performance. She
is a co‐chair of the RTP Medi Congestion Avoidance Techniques (RMCAT) working
group within the IETF. She has authored/coauthored 10 book chapters and over 100
international journal and conference papers.
Bengt Sahlin received his MSc in Computer Science from Aalto University (former
Helsinki University of Technology (TKK)). At TKK, he has also lectured on Modern
Data Communications as well as on DNS and DNS security. He is a Certified Information
Systems Security Professional (CISSP). Bengt has worked in the fields of data‐ and telecommunications for 19 years, mostly with security aspects. In 2000, he joined Ericsson
where he has worked on mobile systems security and product security. He was also
technical coordinator for Ericsson’s security implementation projects, and is now a
manager of a security research group within Ericsson. Bengt Sahlin was 3GPP TSG SA
WG3 chairman 2010–2013.
Chang Liu received a BS degree in Electronic Information Engineering from Dalian
Maritime University, Dalian, China, in 2012. He is currently pursuing his PhD in the
School of Information and Communication Engineering, Dalian University of
Technology, China. From 2015 to 2016, he was a visiting scholar in Department of
Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at University of Tennessee, Knoxville,
USA. His research interests include Spectrum Sensing in Cognitive Radio, Statistical
Signal Processing, Random Matrix Theory, Array Signal Processing and 5G networks.
Edgardo Montes de Oca graduated in Engineering in 1985 from Paris XI University,
Orsay. He has worked as a research engineer in the Alcatel Corporate Research centre
in Marcoussis, France and in Ericsson’s Research centre in Massy, France. In 2004, he
founded Montimage, and is currently its CEO. He is the originator and main architect
of MMT (Montimage Monitoring Tool). His main interests are future networks
(SDN/NFV), network and application monitoring and security, detection and
