Aristotle University of Thessaloniki | Greece
Mr. Angelos Athanasiadis is a Ph.d. candidate in electrical and computer engineering at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, specializing in fpga-based acceleration of convolutional neural networks and heterogeneous computing systems. he holds an M.Eng. in electronics and computer systems and an mba with high distinction, combining strong technical expertise with strategic insight. his research focuses on full-precision CNN acceleration, FPGA architectures, cyber-physical systems, Deep Learning for Robotic Vision and distributed embedded system emulation. Angelos has contributed to major eu-funded research projects, including the adviser and redesign projects, and has completed industrial internships at cadence design systems in Munich. He has also worked in r&d and embedded development roles at exapsys and seems pc, strengthening his applied engineering experience. Academically, he has collaborated with Professor Ioannis papaefstathiou and assistant professor nikolaos tampouratzis, contributing to innovations in energy-efficient cnn inference and high-fidelity system emulation. his open-source framework, fusion, integrates qemu and omnet++ using hla/certi for deterministic, timing-accurate, multi-node execution. Although early in his publication journey, angelos has 1 citation, 1 scopus-listed document, and an h-index of 1, reflecting the initial impact of his contributions. Driven by interdisciplinary research, he aims to advance reconfigurable computing for next-generation autonomous and embedded intelligent systems.
