Dimitrios Serpanos holds a PhD in Computer Science from Princeton University since 1990. He received his Engineering Degree in Computer Engineering & Informatics from the University of Patras in 1985 (1st CE graduate in Greece) and his MA in Computer Science from Princeton University in 1988. Between 1990 and 1996 he was a Research Staff Member (RSM) at IBM Research, T.J. Watson Research Center working in the area of systems architecture for high bandwidth systems. Between 1996 and 2000 he was faculty member at the University of Crete (Computer Science) and a researcher at ICS-FORTH. Since 2000 he has been a professor at the University of Patras, Dept. of Electrical & Computer Engineering, working in the area of computer architecture and embedded systems with emphasis on network systems, security systems and multimedia systems. He has been working on computer architecture, network systems and embedded systems for more than 25 years, with special emphasis on building real systems and prototypes that are tested in the lab or in the field.

Marilyn Wolf received her bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees in electrical engineering from Stanford University in 1980, 1981, and 1984, respectively. She was with AT&T Bell Laboratories in Murray Hill, N.J. from 1984 to 1989 and was with Princeton University from 1989 until 2007. In July 2007, Dr. Wolf joined Georgia Tech as the Rhesa "Ray" S. Farmer, Jr. Distinguished Chair in Embedded Computing Systems and Georgia Research Alliance Eminent Scholar. She has developed a number of techniques for embedded computing, ranging from hardware/software co-design algorithms and real-time scheduling algorithms to code compression and distributed smart cameras. She is a co-founder of Verificon Corporation, which designs smart camera systems. She helped to start several technical conferences, including CODES and MPSoC. She has written four textbooks.
