Yannis Ioannidis (Also: Yannis E. Ioannidis, Greek: Γιάννης Ιωαννίδης) is a Greek computer scientist specializing in database systems. He is currently Professor at the Department of Informatics and Telecommunications of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens as well as an Associated Faculty at the “Athena” Research and Innovation Center, where he also served as the President and General Director for 10 years (2011-2021). His research interests include Database and Information Systems, Data Science, Data and Text Analytics, Scalable Data Processing, Data Infrastructures and Digital Repositories, and Recommender Systems and Personalization, topics on which he has published over 160 articles in leading journals and conferences and also holds three patents. His work is often inspired by and applied to data management and analysis problems that arise in industrial environments or in the context of other scientific fields (Life Sciences, Physical Sciences, Biodiversity, Cultural Heritage).

Biographical information

edit

Yannis Ioannidis was born in Istanbul, Turkey. He moved to Athens, Greece, with his parents and sister in 1964. He received his Diploma in Electrical Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens, Greece, in 1982, his MSc in Applied Mathematics from Harvard University in 1983, and his Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from the University of California-Berkeley in 1986. Immediately after that he joined the faculty of the Computer Sciences Department of the University of Wisconsin, Madison, where he became a Professor before finally leaving in 1999. His research interests include database and information systems, personalization and social networks, data infrastructures and digital libraries & repositories, scientific systems and workflows, eHealth systems, and human-computer interaction, topics on which he has published over one hundred articles in leading journals and conferences. He also holds three patents.

Ioannidis is an ACM and IEEE Fellow (2004 and 2010, respectively) and a member of Academia Europaea. He is also a recipient of the VLDB “10-Year Best Paper Award” (2003), the “Presidential Young Investigator Award” – PYI (1991), and of several awards for teaching excellence, including the nation-wide “Xanthopoulos-Pneumatikos Award for Outstanding Academic Teaching” in Greece (2006) and the “Chancellor’s Award for Excellence in Teaching” at the University of Wisconsin, Madison (1996). He has also been a keynote or invited speaker in several conferences (NLDB’08, ICDE’07, ADBIS’06, CIKM’05, ICDT’03, WAIM’01, SSDBM’00, PDP’00, ECDL’98).

Ioannidis has served as the ACM SIGMOD Chair (July 2009-June 2013), following a 4-year term as Vice-Chair, and is or has been a member of several other executive bodies of professional organizations (VLDB Endowment, IEEE TCDE Executive Committee, EDBT Endowment) and Scientific Advisory Boards (Max Planck Institute for Informatics, Greek National Science & Technology Council, Information Technology advisor to the Greek Minister of Health).

He has been the coordinator and legal entity head of OpenAIRE, which implements the European policies on open access to research publications and data, a key partner in the Human Brain Project flagship initiative, and a coordinator or partner in tens of other European and national research and innovation projects. Ηe has also led or is currently leading the creation of new international or spin-off companies. He is a recipient of the ACM SIGMOD Contributions Award and several other research and teaching awards. He has served as the Secretary / Treasurer of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and is a member of the ACM Europe Council. He is a vice chair of the European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures (ESFRI), the Greek delegate to ESFRI and a member of its Executive Board, and the ESFRI representative to the e-Infrastructure Reflection Group (e-IRG). Finally, he is on the strategic management board of the Greek hub of the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN).
