Ioannis Milis is no longer with us

The Greek theoretical computer science community is mourning the untimely death of Ioannis Milis. We will miss the integrity and decency of his presence, his kindness and selflessness. The calm intelligence of his research on algorithms for scheduling and other optimization problems, more recently on themes related to energy efficiency and the map-reduce paradigm. His smile: easy, warm, measured. His generosity in friendship, collaboration, and teaching.
