Dimitris Gizopoulos

Prof. Dimitris Gizopoulos is a Professor at the Department of Informatics & Telecommunications, University of Athens, leading the Computer Architecture Laboratory. His research focuses on fault tolerance, design validation, performance, and energy efficiency in microprocessors, GPUs, and AI accelerators. He is an IEEE Fellow (2013) and ACM Distinguished Member (2022). His work is supported by Horizon Europe projects like DARE, Neuropuls, and Vitamin-V, alongside industry grants from AMD, Cisco, and Meta. He participates in networks like HiPEAC and Eurolab4HPC and serves on editorial boards of journals including ACM Computing Surveys and IEEE Transactions on Computers.

Prof. Gizopoulos teaches Computer Architecture courses at both undergraduate and graduate levels. His research spans cross-layer reliability analysis, voltage scaling effects, and secure hardware design. Notable contributions include frameworks for GPU reliability assessment (GUFI, GPUI-4) and tools like MerLIN for microarchitecture-level analysis. His lab’s work has been funded by the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking and the Greek-China Research Collaboration program.

• Key Projects: DARE (RISC-V Europe), Neuropuls (neuromorphic accelerators), Vitamin-V (RISC-V cloud environments).
• Awards: IEEE Fellow (2013), ACM Distinguished Member (2022), IEEE Golden Core (since 2002).
• Industry Partnerships: AMD, Cisco, Bosch, NVIDIA, Intel, IBM Research.
• Labs: Leads the Computer Architecture Lab, focusing on fault tolerance and energy-efficient computing.

His work emphasizes bridging hardware-software co-design challenges, with publications in top venues like IEEE Transactions on Computers and ACM Computing Surveys. Recent efforts include analyzing silent data corruptions (SDCs) in CPUs and GPUs, and developing validation frameworks for cloud-native architectures.
