Biografia
Patrick Eugster joined USI as a full professor of computer science in 2017, co-founding its Computer Systems Institute. Prior to that he was a regular faculty member at Purdue University (2005-2016), and at TU Darmstadt (2014-2017). He holds M.S. (1998) and Ph.D. (2001) degrees from EPFL.
Patrick is interested in all aspects of distributed systems, in particular the intersection of distributed systems with networks, programming languages, and dependability. He has co-authored over 160 scientific articles on these topics. He has been awarded for his research by various funding agencies (e.g., NSF CAREER 2007, DARPA Computer Science Study Group 2011, ERC Consolidator 2014), companies (e.g., Google Research Award 2003, NetApp Faculty Fellowship 2014, Facebook Research Award in Distributed Systems 2020, Meta Research Award in Security 2022), and professional organizations (e.g. IFIP Jean-Claude Laurie Award in Dependable Computing 2025). He served as program chair of ACM OOPSLA 2015, returning as associate chair in 2023.
A roughly up-to-date list of his publications can be found in DBLP.
