Ioannis Kamitsos Ph.D. Candidate Department of Electrical Engineering Princeton University

I am a 5th year Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Electrical Engineering at Princeton University, advised by Prof. Mung Chiang. I am affiliated with the EDGE lab and the Networks System Group (NSG). My research focuses on developing (a) optimal energy-conserving control techniques in large scale data centers and DSL broadband access, and (b) demand/response algorithms for networked data centers and Smart Grid networks.

In summer of 2010 I interned at the Standards and RF Lab, Samsung Telecommunications America, Dallas, TX.  I worked on demand/response algorithms for Smart Grid, and in particular I developed efficient power scheduling algorithm for smart devices in a Home Area Network. I demonstrated significant cost savings for different types of consumers, and under various cost profiles, with different price fluctuations.
