About

George Xilouris is a leading researcher in network softwarization, 5G/6G service platforms, and beyond-MANO (Management and Orchestration) architectures. His most cited work, "5Gtango: A Beyond-Mano Service Platform" (2018, 27 citations), introduced a groundbreaking platform that redefines how 5G networks manage and orchestrate services—moving beyond traditional MANO frameworks to support diverse verticals like eHealth, automotive, and Industry 4.0. This contribution is pivotal for enabling the flexibility and scalability required for next-generation networks that connect humans, cars, robots, and IoT devices. Xilouris’s research has shaped the evolution of service orchestration, emphasizing automation, resource efficiency, and multi-domain interoperability. His work is widely recognized for bridging the gap between theoretical network architectures and practical deployment, with citations reflecting its influence on both academic and industrial 5G standardization efforts. Beyond his flagship paper, Xilouris has contributed to numerous EU-funded projects and publications on network slicing, edge computing, and NFV, solidifying his reputation as a key architect of tomorrow’s programmable networks.
