Hadi Tabatabaee Malazi
Hadi Tabatabaee Malazi is an assistant professor at University College Dublin (UCD), School of Computer Science, where his research concentrates on the field of Edge Computing. Receiving a Ph.D. in Computer Engineering from the University of Isfahan (2012) and getting invaluable experience as a visiting Ph.D. student at the Technical University of Delft (2010-2011), he has established himself as a dedicated researcher in distributed systems.
Before joining UCD, Hadi served as an assistant professor at Maynooth University (2022-2023), an occasional lecturer at Trinity College Dublin (2021), and an assistant professor at Shahid Beheshti University (2013-2019). He also worked as a research fellow in the ENABLE research program at CONNECT, Trinity College Dublin (2019-2022).
Hadi’s research line lies in the field of Edge Computing, focused on sustainable computing and service orchestration in distributed systems. His insights and expertise span various distributed systems, encompassing smart cities, smart homes, human activity recognition, and social sensing systems. Hadi has made impactful contributions to these areas, publishing 21 Journal papers with prestigious publishers, including IEEE, Elsevier, and Springer. Hadi is also an associate editor of IEEE Access and a management committee member for COSTAction CA22151 – Cyber-Physical Systems and Digital Twins for Decarbonizing Energy-intensive Industries (CYPHER). He also served as a technical committee member in IEEE CloudCom conferences.
Types of projects he is looking to supervise:
He is interested in research projects addressing the sustainability of edge‑cloud systems, emphasizing AI‑based applications running on various distributed environments such as multi-cloud and edge-cloud systems. This includes considering energy efficiency, energy awareness, and carbon footprint awareness in processing AI-based application services across multiple computing paradigms in the edge-cloud continuum, like virtual machine-based, container-based, and serverless computing paradigms.
