Marios Kountouris, Prof in the Communication Systems Dept, has been awarded an ERC Consolidator Grant with is project SONATA. He is the fourth EURECOM professor to obtain an ERC grant.
His project envisions a radically new goal-oriented communication paradigm that accounts for the Semantics of Information, i.e., the significance and usefulness of messages with respect to the goal of data exchange. SONATA will transform our fundamental understanding of when, what, and how to generate, process, and transmit data.

Our warmest congratulations for this great success!
