George Pallis received his BSc (2001) and Ph.D. (2006) degree in Department of Informatics of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (Greece). Currently, he is Professor at the Computer Science Department, University of Cyprus. His research interests include Distributed and Internet Computing with particular focus on Big Data Analytics, and Cloud/Edge/Fog Computing. Dr. Pallis is one of the programme directors of the Data Science Master programme at University of Cyprus. He is principal institutional investigator in research projects funded by EC, Research Promotion Foundation in Cyprus, and industry (e.g., Google) and has totally attracted more than 5.5M euro. Dr. Pallis has published over 100 papers in international journals (e.g., IEEE TKDE, IEEE TCC, IEEE TSC, ACM TOIT, Scientific Reports etc), magazines (e.g., CACM, IEEE Internet Computing) and conferences (e.g., INFOCOM, IPDPS, ICDCS, SEC, IoTDi, ICWSM, BIG DATA etc) and he is contributor of two international DIN (German Institute for Standardization) standards. His papers have been cited more than 5600 times with h-index 30 (Source: Google Scholar). Dr. Pallis has served as PC-Co-chair of CloudCom 2018 and CCGrid 2019 and General Chair of ACM/IEEE SEC 2024 and general co-chair IEEE IC2E 2024 conferences. Dr. Pallis has also served in numerous Program and Organization Committees for international conferences (WWW, ICDCS, CONEXT, BIG DATA etc.) and he received the best paper awards in IEEE CloudCom 2024, IEEE/ACM UCC 2023, IEEE IoTDi 2022, IEEE ISCC 2022, IEEE BIG DATA 2016, ICSOC 2014 and the best demo award in the ACM/IEEE Symposium on Edge Computing. In 2019, Dr. Pallis served as guest editor for the edge computing special issue on the prestigious Proceedings of the IEEE journal. Dr Pallis is appeared in the World’s Top 2% Scientists list published by Stanford University and he is golden core member of IEEE Computer Society. He was Editor in Chief (EIC) in the IEEE Internet Computing magazine (2019-2023) and Associate Editor in the IEEE Transactions on Cloud Computing. Currently, he is EIC Emeritus in the IEEE Internet Computing magazine and Associate Editor in the Computing Journal (Springer).
