DrHadi Tabatabaee

Hadi Tabatabaee Malazi is an Assistant Professor at the School of Computer Science, University College Dublin (UCD), where he leads the Sustainable Orchestration in Computing Continuum (SOC² Lab). His research is in distributed systems, with a focus on sustainable and resilient orchestration across the computing continuum. He studies how AI-enabled services can be deployed and adapted across edge-cloud, serverless, multi-site, and space-air-ground environments as energy use, carbon intensity, workload demand, connectivity, and failures change over time.

His current research is organised around four connected themes: green AI infrastructure, self-diagnosing edge-cloud systems, LLM@Edge and smart-building automation, and resilient computing under constrained connectivity.

His recent work includes carbon-aware serverless edge scheduling, deployment-aware root-cause analysis for distributed systems, serverless LLM-based building automation, and cooperative caching in space-air-ground networks.

He received his PhD in Computer Engineering from the University of Isfahan in 2012, with a research visit to Delft University of Technology in 2010-2011. Prior to joining UCD, he held academic and research positions at Trinity College Dublin, Maynooth University, Shahid Beheshti University, and within the ENABLE research programme at CONNECT Research Centre.

Hadi is a Senior Member of IEEE, an Associate Editor of IEEE Access, and a Technical Program Committee member for several international conferences. He also serves on the Management Committee of COST Action CA22151 (CYPHER), which focuses on decarbonising energy-intensive industries through cyber-physical systems.

He welcomes opportunities to connect with students, researchers, visiting scholars, and academic or industry partners interested in sustainable computing, resilient distributed systems, edge-cloud orchestration, AIOps, LLM@Edge, and green AI infrastructure.
