About

Elisa Rojas is a leading researcher in edge computing and telecommunications, with a focus on enabling next-generation, hyper-distributed applications. Her work critically advances the field of Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC), where she has explored the essential requirements for realizing mobile and constrained edge environments. In her highly cited 2023 paper, “Beyond Multi-Access Edge Computing,” Rojas identifies key architectural and operational challenges—such as latency, bandwidth, and resource locality—that must be solved to support emerging use cases like edge robotics and augmented reality. Beyond her technical contributions, Rojas is deeply committed to engineering education. Her 2020 study on acquiring transversal skills through robotics competitions demonstrates her innovative approach to pedagogy, showing how hands-on, interdisciplinary projects like the EUROBOT contest can foster critical teamwork and problem-solving abilities in university students. With over 10 citations on her most prominent work, Rojas’s research is shaping both the future of edge infrastructure and the development of the next generation of engineers. Her dual focus on cutting-edge systems and educational impact makes her a distinctive and influential voice in her field.
