About
Anastasios Zafeiropoulos is a leading researcher in next-generation communication systems, with a primary focus on 5G and 6G network architectures, service orchestration, and end-to-end system design. His major contributions include pioneering work on the 5Gtango service platform, which introduced a beyond-MANO (Management and Orchestration) framework to enable flexible, automated service deployment across heterogeneous 5G infrastructures—a critical step toward supporting vertical industries like eHealth, automotive, and Industry 4.0. More recently, Zafeiropoulos has been instrumental in shaping the future of 6G through the Hexa-X-II project, where he co-authored a seminal design methodology for end-to-end 6G systems (39 citations, 2024), addressing challenges that 5G still faces. His work is highly cited, with papers accumulating over 66 citations, reflecting its influence on both academic research and industrial standards. Notable achievements include his role in advancing network softwarization and slicing, enabling ultra-reliable, low-latency communication for critical applications. Zafeiropoulos’ research bridges the gap between theoretical innovation and practical deployment, making him a key figure in the evolution toward intelligent, sustainable, and human-centric 6G networks.
