Biography

I am a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in Low Carbon and Sustainable Computing at the School of Computing Science, University of Glasgow, and a member of the GLAsgow Systems Section. My research explores the optimization of high-performance computing (HPC) systems for reduced environmental impact. This includes performance modeling, application optimization and co-design, and resource management strategies with a focus on energy efficiency. I have a keen interest in applying these techniques to machine learning workloads.

Prior to joining the University of Glasgow, I held post-doctoral research positions at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden, and the National Technical University of Athens in Greece, where I contributed to several European R&D projects in the area of high-performance and cloud computing (ACTiCLOUD, EuroEXA, CYBELE, HiDALGO, REGALE, eProcessor, EUPILOT).  I hold a PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens. I am a member of ACM and HiPEAC.
