Piotr Oramus

Piotr Oramus, PhD, is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Information Technologies at Jagiellonian University in Kraków, Poland. His research focuses on parallel and distributed computing, glowworm swarm optimization algorithms, and computational materials science. He holds a PhD in Physics from Jagiellonian University (2001) and an MSc in Physics (1995) from the same institution.

• Education: MSc (1995), PhD (2001) in Physics from Jagiellonian University
• Affiliations: Department of Information Technologies, Jagiellonian University; Juna Network Academy (Juniper Networks Academic Alliance)

His research interests include optimization algorithms, Monte Carlo simulations for material systems, and distributed computing architectures. Recent work has advanced glowworm swarm optimization techniques and explored atomic ordering dynamics in intermetallic alloys. Key contributions span computational modeling of phase transitions, defect chemistry, and superstructure stability.

Teaching responsibilities include courses on computer networks and object-oriented design. He has published extensively on topics ranging from parallel computing frameworks to atomic migration mechanisms in materials science.

Grants include BASTION, MASTER, and VENTURES (2011/8 KBN Grant) projects. He leads the Students Computer Laboratory and collaborates with the Juna Network Academy for academic-industrial partnerships.
