Makis Arsenis

I'm a final year Ph.D. student in the Computer Science department of Cornell University. My research focuses on Online and Probabilistic Algorithm Design, particularly on problems relating to Mechanism Design. I am very fortunate to be advised by Robert Kleinberg.

Before that, I completed my undergraduate studies in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA) where I had opportunity to work with professor Dimitris Fotakis and was a member of the corelab research group.

Here is my latest resume.
