Karakostas Vasileios is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Informatics and Telecommunications of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. His research focuses on computer architecture, cloud computing, and energy-efficient hardware systems. He specializes in areas such as RISC-V processors, virtual memory systems, and hardware security. Vasileios leads projects like NEUROPULS (neuromorphic secure accelerators) and Vitamin-V (RISC-V-based cloud infrastructure validation). His work emphasizes resilience analysis, performance optimization, and trustworthy development frameworks. Education and employment details are not explicitly provided in the source text, but his extensive publication record since 2011 demonstrates continuous academic engagement. Key research trends include: Memory systems optimization (e.g., TLB hierarchies, elastic translations) GPU and SoC fault tolerance analysis Cloud resource management (ACTiCLOUD, DAPHNE runtime) Open-source hardware validation (Vitamin-V project) Notable contributions include the Gem5-marvel simulator for heterogeneous architectures and BypassD for SSD access acceleration. His work bridges theoretical computer architecture with practical cloud and embedded system applications.
