next for the Committee Against Violence in
Fields
of Sports, and last as in charge of the Computer
Department
of ÅÊÁÅ, this belonging to the “Olympic
Sports
Center of Athens” (ÏÁÊÁ).
1991 -
1992 Became
a Member of the Scientific Council of ÅÊÁÅ.
For my
authoring and scientific work, during those years,
I was
congratulated, in written, by the top managers of
ÏÁÊÁ
and ÅÊÁÅ (when I decided to quit my job, in order
to
develop a corner of new technology and related research).
1987 -
1988 Worked
on a project of ÊÏÅÁÔ (Central Organizational
Committee
Seeking for Children Talented in Sports),
under
the “General Secretariat of Sports” (ÃÃÁ).
Height,
weight, and tested performances of 150,000
children,
at the age of 8, were input as data, processed,
and
co-evaluated by a program of mine. That task was
completed
in less than 9 weeks, with absolute success.
1985 -
1986 One

in a company being in the construction business.
Accomplishments / Awards
Oct.
2000 - Sept. 2002 Invented
the Binary Oblong Random-Number series of
generators
(the BORN engines), and presented an original
Encryption/Decryption
Program, to a group of officers,
appointed
by the Greek Army, to evaluate the proposed
method
for implementation. I was notified, afterwards, that
my
algorithm had passed the randomness tests of the Army,
and
also those of the Defense-Systems Dep. of Intracom sa.
1994 -
1995 My
proof of “The Two Squares Theorem” (number theory)
was
published in a special Geometry-Analysis-Mechanics
(GAM)
World Scientific volume, dedicated to Archimedes.
1988 Awarded
by the Greek Operational Researchers Union,
and
chosen to represent Greece, in the international
congress,
which is organized by IFORS every 3 years.
The
problem of Locating an Obnoxious Facility (in terms
of
Location Theory) had been posed by Dr. J. Karkazis,
professor
of mathematics in the Aegean University, and
was
solved through our collaboration, in a series of three
papers,
ending with the one presented in Buenos Ayres.
Independent Research
Sept.
2004 - to date Developping
automatic trading systems specifically adjusted
to the
foreign exchange market (FOREX).
Apr.
2001 - to date Working,
in private, on a mathematical approach to what is,
apparently,
contradicting the big-bang cosmology, i.e. various
evidence
suggesting that the expansion of the universe is now
accelerating.This
theoretical piece of research, having already
been
completed, proves that most observations comply with a
relativistic
steady-state model, according to which, a universal
force
of fundamental nature acts exclusively on distant matter,
and has
no effect on the course, or the intensity, of pure light.
Apr.
1999 - May 1999 Designed a partial model describing
the one most complex
of all
regular polyhedral spaces, as a construction consisting
of 690
curved segments and 222 nodes (it’s on my website).
Jan.
1999 - Mar. 1999 Extended
the notion of a regular hyper-polyhedron to
that of
a regular polyhedral space, thus prolonging the
initial
list of six (6) finite (since being convex) spaces,
by 5
infinite ones, of which only 1 is Euclidean.
July
1998 - Dec. 1998 Conceived geometrically and designed
the "dual" to the
following
space frame, formally resembling to a regular
dodecahedron,
and consisting of 600 composite parts of
only 15
types.
Dec.
1996 - July 1998 Invented
a mathematical model and designed a complex
spatial
frame, made of 720 curved, cylindrical segments.
This
looked like a spherical sculpture corresponding to the
Euclidean
translation of a hyper-spherical frame.
Nov.
1996 Proved
the existence of 6 regular 4-d hyper-polyhedrons,
and of
at least two, in each dimension beyond the 4th._
