Luís Veiga is Associate Professor (tenured) in the Computer Science and Engineering Department at Instituto Superior Técnico (IST), University of Lisbon. He is Member of the Scientific Council of IST (23-), was Vice-Head of Department for Education (21-22), and previously Coordinator of the M.Sc. in Computer Science and Engineering (17-20). He teaches courses on Cloud Computing and Virtualization, on Web Distributed Computing, and Advanced Topics of Operating Systems, Virtualization and Cloud computing, and previously Outreach and Teaching Skills, Virtual Execution Environments, and Middleware for Distributed Internet Applications. He is Senior Researcher at INESC-ID. His research focuses: virtualization; resource management and scalability in infrastructure and platforms for cloud and edge computing; middleware for distributed systems with replicated data; data processing platforms for large scale (Big Data); also combined with approaches inspired by economic models, and focusing on energy efficiency issues. He has (co-)supervised over 70 MSc thesis and 10 PhD thesis to completion on these and related distributed systems and topics. He was the Scientific Coordinator of the Distributed Systems Group (GSD) and of the Research Area on Distributed, Parallel and Secure Systems (DPSS) of INESC-ID, during 2020-2021, and a member of the Scientific Council of INESC-ID. He recently coordinated locally at INESC-ID H2020 project MoTiV and was WP Leader on the development of a Europe-wide mobile application (Android/iOS) to assess mobility patterns of European citizens and to evaluate the 70k+ trips of 3k+ users across 8 countries and assess them in terms of sustainable transportation with the cooperation of NGOs; and served as QA manager and led tasks for H2020 project TRACE, on privacy-enabled mobile and sensor tracking services. He coordinated National project ContexTWA, on context-aware pervasive sensing leveraging mobile clouds, and coordinates novaVM, to improve memory efficiency, energy efficiency, and performance of Java VM runtimes massively deployed, including at the edge. He has coordinated locally FP7 project CloudForEurope, and 4 other concluded National projects since 2010, on resource management and data processing in decentralized P2P systems, scheduling for cloud & virtualization, multi-core programming and replicated data consistency. He led Tasks in FP7 project Timbus on digital preservation and virtualization. He has also evaluated EU FP7 and third-country project proposals (Belgium, Israel). He has 140 peer-reviewed scientific publications in journals, conferences, book chapters, workshops (Best Paper Award at IEEE Int'l Conference on Software-Defined Systems - SDS 2018, Best Paper Award at Middleware 2007, Best Student Paper Award IEEE NCA 2020, Best-Paper Award Runner Up at IEEE CloudCom 2013, Best-Paper Candidate at IEEE CloudCom 2014, Best Video Nominee - Student Video Competition - IEEE SmartGridComm 2015). He was Program Committee Co-Chair of ACM/IFIP Middleware 2021, and was earlier General Chair for ACM Middleware 2011, member of Middleware Steering (2011-2014, 2020-) and Program Committee (2014-). He was Virtualization track co-Chair for IEEE CloudCom 2013, Local Chair (2014) and Global Chair (2017) for Euro-Par Track on Distributed Systems and Algorithms, and Local Chair (2021) for the Track on Cluster, Cloud and Edge Computing. He has participated in workshop organization on mobile edge clouds (co-Chair, MECC@Middleware, 2017-19) and decentralized storage and blockchain (DI2F@IFIP Networking'21). He was Program Chair for IEEE CSE 2015, Workshops Chair for ACM EuroSys'16, Shadow PC Chair for EuroSys'18, Doctoral Symposium Chair for Middleware'18, and Track-Chair for CCGrid'19. He is Associate Editor, Lead of Series on Emergent Ideas in Middleware, in Springer Journal of Internet Services and Applications (JISA). In the recent years, he has been invited to review papers for IEEE TCC, TPDS, TC, TDSC, TSCSI, Access and JoGC, FGCS, JoBD, CCPE, SPE, SecCommNets, JCNC, JSME, WCMC. He was an "Excellence in Teaching in IST" mention for faculty recipient (2008, 2012, 2014), awarded Best Researcher Overall at INESC-ID Prize (winner 2014, nominated 2013, 2015, 2016, 2019), awarded Best Young Researcher at INESC-ID Prize (winner 2012, nominated 2010, 2011), and has had 3 students nominated for Best PhD at INESC-ID. He is a member of the Scientific Board of Erasmus Mundus Joint Doctorate in Distributed Computing. He is Member of ACM, IFIP and Senior Member of IEEE. He belongs to the ACM EuroSys Chapter Steering Committee, was Secretary for EuroSys (17-21), and is Vice-Chair for IFIP WG 6.1 - Architectures and Protocols for Distributed Systems, and Chair of IEEE Computer Society Chapter, IEEE Section Portugal. He has served terms on CS Department Council and University Assembly, and has served two years as one of the 10 faculty members in IST Pedagogical Council.
