Short Biography
John
S. Baras is a Distinguished University Professor, holding the Lockheed Martin Chair in Systems Engineering, in the Institute for Systems Research (ISR) and the ECE Department at the University of Maryland College Park (UMD). He received his Ph.D. degree in
Applied Mathematics from Harvard University, in 1973, and he has been with UMD since then. From 1985 to 1991, he was the Founding Director of the ISR. Since 1992, he has been the Director of the Maryland Center for Hybrid Networks (HYNET), which he co-founded.
He is a Fellow of IEEE (Life), SIAM, AAAS, NAI, IFAC, AMS, AIAA, Member of the National Academy of Inventors (NAI) and a Foreign Member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences (IVA). Major honors and awards include the 1980 George Axelby Award
from the IEEE Control Systems Society, the 2006 Leonard Abraham Prize from the IEEE Communications Society, the 2017 IEEE Simon Ramo Medal, the 2017 AACC Richard E. Bellman Control Heritage Award, and the 2018 AIAA Aerospace Communications Award. In 2016 he
was inducted in the University of Maryland A. J. Clark School of Engineering Innovation Hall of Fame. In June 2018 he was awarded a Doctorate Honoris Causa by his alma mater the National Technical University of Athens, Greece. His research interests include
systems, control, optimization, autonomy, machine learning, artificial intelligence, communication networks, applied mathematics, signal processing and understanding, robotics, computing architectures, formal methods, network security and trust, systems biology,
healthcare management, model-based systems engineering. He has been awarded twenty patents and honored with many awards as innovator and leader of economic development.

To position Greece as a leading player in AI and Data Science
To build an AI Excellence Hub in Greece where the international research community can connect, groundbreaking ideas can thrive, and the next generation of scientists emerges, shaping a brighter future for Greece and the world
Welcome to ARCHIMEDES, a vibrant research hub connecting the global AI and Data Science research community fostering groundbreaking research in Greece and beyond. Its dedicated core team, comprising lead researchers, affiliated researchers, Post-Docs, PhDs and interns, is committed to advancing basic and applied research in Artificial Intelligence and its supporting disciplines, including Algorithms, Statistics, Learning Theory, and Game Theory organized around 8 core research areas. By collaborating with Greek and Foreign Universities and Research Institutes, ARCHIMEDES disseminates its research findings fostering knowledge exchange and providing enriching opportunities for students. Leveraging AI to address real-world challenges, ARCHIMEDES promotes innovation within the Greek ecosystem and extends its societal impact. Established in January 2022, as a research unit of the Athena Research Center with support from the Committee Greece 2021, ARCHIMEDES is funded for its first four years by the EU Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF).
We are happy to announce that 11 papers from Archimedes, Athena Research Center, Greece, have been accepted at the Thirty-Ninth Annual Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS 2025)!
Vassilis Alimisis, a postdoctoral researcher at Archimedes, Athena Research Center, Greece, will deliver a tutorial on "Low-Power Analog Hardware Classifier Architecture for ML Applications: From A to Z" at the International Conference on Microelectronics (ICM 2025), taking place on 14-17 December, 2025, in Cairo, Egypt.
Archimedes Research Unit of the Athena Research Center, Greece, is featured in a recent article in Dnews. This article is about an Archimedes flagship project in cardiology and AI that aims to use "two-dimensional echocardiographic data to develop deep learning tools and improve the treatment of heart problems."
Vasileios Moustakas, PhD student at the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering - NTUA and Academic Fellow at Archimedes, Athena Research Center, Greece, Konstantinos Cheliotis and Anna Mylona, both MEng students at the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering - NTUA and interns at Archimedes, Athena Research Center, Vassilis Alimisis, Postdoctoral Researcher at Archimedes, Athena Research Center, and Paul Sotiriadis, Lead Researcher at Archimedes, Athena Research Center, and a Professor at the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering - NTUA, received the Best Paper Award (PhD Symposium) at the
Giorgos Papanastasiou, Lead Researcher at the Archimedes Research Unit of the Athena Research Center, Greece,and Faculty Research Fellow at Edinburgh Imaging, at the University of Edinburgh, the Queen’s Medical Research Institute, Edinburgh, UK, has co-published a Nature Communications paper on "Clinical implications of bone marrow adiposity identified by phenome-wide association and Mendelian randomization in the UK Biobank."Prof. Papanastasiou mentions that "this project is a strong testament to the power of augmenting biological research with advanced AI and data science methods."
The project “ARCHIMEDES Unit: Research in Artificial Intelligence, Data Science and Algorithms” with code OPS 5154714 is implemented by the National Recovery and Resilience Plan “Greece 2.0” and is funded by the European Union – NextGenerationEU.
