SmartRideAI: Smart Systems for Safe and Sustainable Mobility
Safer, more sustainable mobility through on-device fusion of video and sensor data with fast, explainable alerts.
Professional Summary
I am a Full Professor in the
Department of Electronics and Computing
at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Naval
Architecture (FESB), University of Split,
Croatia, where I teach
wireless network security, wireless communication networks, data science and
reinforcement learning.
My research spans information security, applied cryptography and the Internet of
Things. Before returning to FESB in 2020, I was an assistant and then associate
professor at the University Department of Forensic Sciences
in Split. I co-founded the SpliTech international
conference and serve on the editorial board of the
Journal of Communications Software and Systems.

Research
My research spans information security, applied cryptography and the Internet of Things:
- Usable security & authentication. Human authentication schemes resistant to shoulder-surfing, timing and side-channel attacks, relay attacks, and user-friendly initialization of constrained wireless devices, including visible-light channels.
- Wireless & IoT security. LoRaWAN jamming and replay attacks, privacy leakage, Wi-Fi location privacy, secret-key extraction from wireless channels, and payload encryption for satellite NB-IoT.
- Smart environments. Smart parking, RFID, soil and water sensing, indoor localization, thermal comfort, and wearable health monitoring, including machine-learning approaches to sleep apnea.
