Intro

I am currently a member of faculty in the Information Engineering and Computer Science Department (DISI), at the University of Trento.

I am co-director of dbTrento, the Databases and Information Management Group of DISI.

Before joining the University of Trento, I worked at the IBM T.J. Watson Research Center, and at the University of California at Riverside. I have also visited Microsoft Research, and the IBM Almaden Research Center.

I am a founding member of the Event Processing Technical Society, and have been a member of the IBM Academy of Technology Study on Event Processing. I serve on the editorial boards and program committees of several international journals and conferences in the areas of data management and data mining.

I received my BSc degree from the National Technical University of Athens, Greece, and then received a MSc and a PhD degree from the University of Toronto, Canada.

Trivium: my Erdos Number is 2.
