BIOGRAPHY

Lea Skorin-Kapov is Associate Professor and head of the Multimedia Quality of Experience Research Lab (MUEXLab). Her research interests include Quality of Experience modeling of multimedia and mobile Web-based applications, QoE monitoring of encrypted video traffic, cross-layer negotiation and management of QoS/QoE in NGN environments, and policy-based resource allocation and optimization mechanisms.

She was born in Zagreb, Croatia. She attended elementary school and high school in Canada and the USA. After returning to Croatia, she received her Dipl.-Ing., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in Telecommunications from the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing (FER) at the University of Zagreb, Croatia, in 2001, 2004, and 2007, respectively. She was awarded the Silver Plaque „Josip Loncar“ award for both outstanding masters thesis and outstanding doctoral dissertation. Her doctoral dissertation was entitled "A Framework for Service-Level End-to-End Quality of Service Negotiation and Adaptation". In 2001, she completed a short term internship at the Czech Technical University in Prague.

From 2001-2009 she was employed as a senior research engineer and project manager in the Research and Development Center of Ericsson Nikola Tesla d.d. (ETK), Zagreb, Croatia. During that time she was involved in projects conducted in collaboration between ETK and FER focused on researching QoS signaling, negotiation, and adaptation for advanced multimedia services in NGNs. She was also a member of the ETK Innovation Management Group and Technology Management Group. In 2005 she completed the Ericsson Leadership Core Curriculum development program. From 2003-2009 she participated in organizing and running the annual ETK Summer School for top-class students (in cooperation with FER). From 2002-2009 she was an adjunct teaching and research assistant at the Department of Telecommunications, FER, University of Zagreb.

Since 2010 she has been employed at the Department of Telecommunications, FER, University of Zagreb, where she is currently Associate professor. She is the principal investigator for the projects "Cooperative Quality of Experience Management for Interactive Cloud-Based Multimedia Applications in Mobile Networks" funded by the Croatian Science Foundation, and "QoMoVid: QoE Monitoring Solutions for Mobile OTT Video Streaming" funded by Ericsson Nikola Tesla. She is also currently involved in EU COST Action IC1304 ACROSS (Autonomous Control for a Reliable Internet of Services). She previously participated in the EU COST Action IC1003 (European Network on Quality of Experience in Multimedia Systems and Services, QUALINET),Celtic-Plus project "Quality of Experience Estimators in Networks" (QuEEN), FP7 OpenIoT, and EU SIIF project "ICT-based Competence Network for Innovative Services for Persons with Complex Communication Needs ".

She has published over 90 scientific papers, has served on numerous conference and workshop TPCs including ACM Multimedia, ACM Multimedia Systems, QoMEX, ICC, Infocom, ITC, SPIE, QCMan, and others, and has served as Program co-chair of the IEEE flagship Region 8 conference EUROCON, and the International Conference on Quality of Multimedia Experience (QoMEX 2017). She is on the editorial board of IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management and Springer's Multimedia Systems journal, and has served as Guest Editor for the IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Signal Processing, and ACM Transactions on Multimedia Computing, Communications, and Applications. She acts as reviewer for top rated journals including IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking, IEEE Communications Magazine, IEEE Computer, Springer Multimedia Tools and Applications, IEEE Surveys and Tutorials. She was  a contributing author to ETSI TS 103 294 "Speech and multimedia Transmission Quality (STQ); Quality of Experience: A Monitoring Architecture".

She is currently serving as Chapter vice-chair of the IEEE Communications Society —Croatia Chapter, and is co-chair for the IEEE MMTC QoE Interest Group.
