Tibor Dulai graduated from the University of Pannonia (Hungary) and received his M.Sc. degree in Information Technology. After graduation, he started working on his Ph.D. thesis, which covers the research of new methods in telecommunications protocol design. By the years parallel with his Ph.D. studies, he has worked as Professor assistant at the university. This job gave him the opportunity to find the weaknesses of tutorials and educational books dealing with protocol management. Based on the feedbacks he has received from his students, he has clear ideas how to improve the education materials in this field. At present, his research topic is the effect of vehicle cooperation in the vehicle routing problem.
