The impact of global warming and the imperative to limit climate change have stimulated the need to develop new solutions based on renewable energy sources. One of the emerging trends in this endeavor are the Electric Vehicles (EVs), which use electricity instead of traditional fossil fuels as a power source, relying on the Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) paradigm. The novelty of such a paradigm requires careful analysis to avoid malicious attempts. An attacker can exploit several surfaces, such as the remote connection between the Distribution Grid and Charging Supply or the authentication system between the charging Supply Equipment and the Electric Vehicles. However, V2G architecture’s high cost and complexity in implementation can restrain this field’s research capability.

This thesis is an experimental evaluation of NFC and RFID security of contactless cards protocols, including ISO 14443 and EMV.
Contactless smart cards are commonly used in every day life for a wide variety of ap- plications ranging from tap-and-go payment cards, access control for buildings, parking tickets and toll highways as well as ski-passes and public transport systems. Moreover, most of the phones marketed nowadays embed NFC chips allowing card emulation. Thus, smartphones have turned out to provide the same functionality as smart cards, proving enhanced high-level security features. Nevertheless, some smart cards systems, including payment systems, are vulnerable to attacks. As a result, end-users must carefully protect their cards privacy when keeping contactless smart cards in their pockets.
I have made a youtube course on C programming language, it is available on YouTube.
To practise my skills and learn C, I decided to start a C programming language course, entirely free and avialable on my YouTube channel. All the code for the course is avialable here.
In this homework we had to elaborate information from two airport stations: jfk, san francisco.
In this assignment we had to elaborate some queries to gather information from two airport stations which gathered daily information such as: wind speed, average temperature. The report and code are available on github.
SwiftUI view that downloads and displays a view (e.g. image) from URL, displaying Activity Indicator while loading.
ViewWithActivityIndicator is a SwiftUI view that download and display image from URL and displaying Activity Indicator while loading. It is strongly inspiered by ImageWithActivityIndicator The source code is available on GitHub:
During this homework, I evaluated the existing security issues of RFID devices. I also proposed a solution using a server and a 6LoWPAN architecture to validate tags.
The server was developed in Django (python), the client in Android. The full report is available on request only, because sensitive information was documented.
