Head of Technology

Christos Theodosiou

Dr. Theodosiou has been continuously involved in the general research field of Computational Mechanics and Scientific Computing over the past years. This is reflected by his extensive professional experience on software development alongside with his refereed publications in high quality archival journals and the extensive list of his publications and presentations in national and international scientific conferences.

He participated to a large number of funded research projects, funded by international industries (e.g. Honda, Mazda, SHI). Moreover, during his pre and post- graduate studies and later during his professional carrier he participated in an extensive number of national and European funded projects on software engineering and scientific computing (e.g. EGI- InSPIRE, EGEE-III, PRACE and PRACE-1IP). These projects provided useful information about the computational needs of industry. During the past years, he was involved into design and development of algorithms on several novel research ideas in solving current industrial challenging problems.
