| Curriculum Vitae (updated February 2013) |
I am a second year PhD student in the Department of
Computer Science at Cornell University. My research interests lie in
Distributed Systems and more specifically in their scalability and
self-organization aspects.
I am also interested in Algorithms, especially those designed for
distributed computation. My advisor is Robbert van Renesse and
we are currently working on optimizing cache placement in a client-side
caching setting while maintaining the privacy of the clients. My
committee also includes Prof.
Johannes Gehrke, Prof. Dexter Kozen and Prof.
Éva Tardos. My graduate minor is in Applied Mathematics.
I have worked as a research member at R.A. Computer Technology Institute, Research
Unit 1 from 2010-2011. I received my Dimploma in Computer Science
and Engineering from the Department
of Computer Engineering and Informatics at the University of Patras,
Greece in 2010.
