A great honor of his paper The Probabilistic Analysis of a Greedy Satisfiability Algorithm (co authored by L. M. Kirousis and E. G. Lalas) is to be cited in the upcoming volume of the infamous and prolific Don Knuth’s (Turing award ‘71) series: The art of the computer programming (“The best 12 physical-science monographs of the centuryAmerican Scientist, “If you think you're a really good programmer . . . read (Knuth's) Art of Computer ProgrammingBill Gates, “The profession's defining treatise”, The New York Times). In this volume Professor Knuth influentially describes the most important combinatorial algorithms.

A great honor of the project “Algorithmic Game Theory” that he participates in, is the 1st place overall Greece in the Thalis competition (Engineering and Informatics section, results out Oct. 2011) of. The project Coordinator is Professor Paul Spirakis.
