About me

I am a second-year CS PhD student at UC-Berkeley and I am co-advised by Prof. Katherine Yelick and Prof. James Demmel. I am affiliated with Berkeley Benchmarking and Optimization group. My research interests include high performance applications and scientific computing. Currently I am working on communication-avoiding algorithms. Before joining UC Berkeley, I received my diploma in Electrical and Computer Engineering from National Technical University of Athens. In my diploma thesis I investigated the effectiveness of overlapping computations and communication in a variety of parallel applications aiming to substantial speedups at commodity clusters (pdf). Here you can find my CV.
