Stamatis Vassiliadis was born in Manolates, Samos, Greece. He is currently the chairperson of the computer engineering laboratory and a chair professor in the Electrical Engineering department in T.U.Delft (Delft University of Technology), The Netherlands. He has also served in the faculties of EE of the Cornell University, Ithaca, NY and the State University of New York (S.U.N.Y.), Binghamton, NY. He worked for a decade with IBM in the Advanced Workstations and Systems laboratory in Austin TX, the Mid-Hudson Valley laboratory in Poughkeepsie NY and the Glendale laboratory in Endicott NY. In IBM he has been involved in a number of projects regarding computer design, organizations, and architectures and the leadership to advanced research projects. He has been involved in the design and implementation of several computer systems from mainframes to embedded. Examples of commercially available systems and processors that he personally worked on or that they use his inventions include the following: IBM 9370 model 60, IBM POWER II, IBM AS/400 Models 400, 500, and 510, IBM AS/400 Server Models 40S and 50S, IBM AS/400 Advanced 36, IBM S/390 Parallel Enterprise Server G4, MWAVE 3780i DSP, IBM S/390 Parallel Enterprise Server G5, IBM S/390 Parallel Enterprise Server G6, several Motorola/Apple/IBM processors including the 603e, 604e, 750..., the Motorola/Apple/IBM ALTIVEC, IBM Server z2000, BOPS ManArray, ...

For his work he received numerous awards including 24 levels of Publication Achievement Awards, 15 levels of Invention Achievement Awards and an Outstanding Innovation Award for Engineering/Scientific Hardware Design in 1989. Six of his patents have been rated with the highest patent ranking in IBM and in 1990 he was awarded the highest number of patents in IBM. While in IBM he was awarded 70 USA patents ranking him as the top all time IBM inventor. Dr. Vassiliadis received several paper awards including:

  • 2001 IEEE ICCD conference best paper award for the paper "MPEG Macroblock Parsing and Pel Reconstruction on an FPGA-augmented TriMedia Processor"
  • 1998 IEEE CAS conference best paper award for the paper "A Versatile Threshold Logic Gate"
  • 1992 ACM-IEEE Micro 25 conference honorable mention best paper award for the paper "Interlock Collapsing ALU for Increasing Instruction level

Dr. Vassiliadis has guided award winning PhD dissertations including the following:

  • 1992/1993 academic year: Candidate for Graduate Student Award For Excellence in Ph.D. Research (E.E. Dept. SUNY). Phd student: G. Triantafyllos
  • 1991/92 academic year: Distinguished Ph.D. Dissertation Award in Science, Mathematics, and Engineering (SUNY). Phd student: G. G. Pechanek. The first and the only best Ph.D. dissertation award ever awarded to an Electrical Engineering Ph.D. student at SUNY
  • 1990/1991 academic year: Graduate Student Award For Excellence in Ph.D. Research (SUNY). Phd student: G. G. Pechanek
