Hi, I’m Blas 👋

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Twente, where I work on algorithms for more sustainable data centres within the MISD project. I obtained my PhD in Computer Science from Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha in October 2024. My research interests include sustainable data centres and communication networks, wireless communications, MEC systems, and AI-driven network management.
