About

Hi, my name is Zafeirakis Zafeirakopoulos and I am an assistant professor at the Institute of Information Technologies of Gebze Technical University. I am a mathematician spending most of my time designing or implementing algorithms.

I hold a Ptychion (4-year degree) in Mathematics and an MSc. in Computational Science from the University of Athens. I was awarded a PhD from the Johannes Kepler University in Linz, under the supervision of Prof. Paule in the Research Institute for Symbolic Computation (RISC). After that, I held post-doctoral positions at RISC, ΕρΓΑ and Galatasaray University.
My CV is available here.
