معرفی
Athinagoras Skiadopoulos is a computer systems researcher at Stanford University's School of Engineering, Department of Computer Science, focusing on the intersection of database systems and operating systems. His work centers around the innovative DBOS (Database-oriented Operating System) project and large-scale machine learning infrastructure, collaborating with prominent researchers including Christos Kozyrakis and Michael Stonebraker.
His primary research interests include:
- Database-oriented Operating Systems (DBOS)
- Distributed systems for large-scale machine learning
- Resource management and optimization in data-intensive systems
- Transaction processing and data governance
- High-performance networking for accelerated computing
- Fault tolerance in distributed training systems
Skiadopoulos's research trajectory shows a clear evolution from foundational DBOS architecture toward applications in large-scale machine learning systems. His early publications established the DBOS framework for operating system design using database principles, while his recent work addresses critical challenges in distributed training of massive neural networks. Systems like ReCycle and SlipStream demonstrate innovative approaches to pipeline adaptation and failure recovery during distributed training. His most recent 2025 work on accelerating Mixture-of-Experts training represents the cutting edge of efficient large model training infrastructure.
Through his research, Skiadopoulos has established himself in both the database and systems research communities, with publications in premier venues including SOSP, OSDI, VLDB, and CIDR. His work consistently bridges theoretical database concepts with practical systems implementations, demonstrating how database techniques can solve real-world systems challenges in modern computing environments.
