Florian Echtler is associate professor in the Human-Centered Computing
section at the Department of Computer Science, Aalborg University. His
research centers around the intersection of ubiquitous computing,
peer-to-peer networking, and security/privacy. Our current mobile and
cloud ecosystem is heavily dependent on a few large corporations,
thereby limiting our digital self-determination. He is looking for new
ways to enable seamless mobile interaction with people and services
without being dependent on any central infrastructure.
