Stamatis Symposium

A Celebration of the Life of Stamatis Vassiliadis, 2017

On the occasion of the tenth anniversary of the passing of Stamatis, we have changed the format of SAMOS XVII as follows: Instead of Keynotes each day of the conference, we are having a special symposium on Wednesday, July 19, consisting of nine 20 minute vision talks by leading authorities in computer architecture, followed by several short remembrances by colleagues who knew Stamatis well. In the tradition of Stamatis, we will keep the symposium to approximately four hours, leaving the afternoon free for eating, drinking, and good fellowship.

The agenda is as follows:
