Based in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia

Bio:

Charalambos Konstantinou is an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at the Computer, Electrical and Mathematical Science and Engineering Division (CEMSE) of King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST), Thuwal, Saudi Arabia. At KAUST, he has a courtesy affiliation with the Electrical and Computer Engineering program and is a member of the Resilient Computing and Cybersecurity Center (RC3). Before joining KAUST, he was an Assistant Professor with the Center for Advanced Power Systems (CAPS) at Florida State University (FSU), Tallahassee, FL. He received a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from New York University, NY, in 2018, and a Dipl.-Ing.-M.Eng. Degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from National Technical University of Athens (NTUA), Greece, in 2012. His research interests include cyber-physical and embedded systems security with focus on power systems. He has authored multiple articles in the IEEE/ACM transactions and conference proceedings, and serves in the program committee of several international conferences. He is currently the Chair of the IEEE Task Force on Resilient and Secure Large-Scale Energy Internet Systems and the Secretary of the IEEE Task Force on Cyber-Physical Interdependence for Power System Operation and Control. He is the recipient of the 2020 Myron Zucker Student-Faculty Grant Award from IEEE Foundation, the Southeastern Center for Electrical Engineering Education (SCEEE) Young Faculty Development Award 2019, and the best paper award at the International Conference on Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI-SoC) 2018. He serves as the (Guest) Associate Editor for the International Journal of Electrical Power & Energy Systems, IEEE Computer, and IEEE Consumers Electronics Magazine. He is a Senior Member of IEEE, a member of ACM, and an ACM Distinguished Speaker.
