Data, Networks, and Algorithms Lab

Lab and Offices

Our lab is located on the 4th floor of the ISEC Building (room 470A): it is on the northeastern side of the atrium, opposite of the elevators. Prof. Ioannidis's office is also on the 4th floor, at room 414.

Mailing Lists

Beyond the usual SPIRAL mailing lists, DNAL students should also subscribe to:

Discovery Cluster Partitions

DNAL has restricted access to partitions ioannidis and ioannidis2 on the Discovery Cluster, described here. If you are in Prof. Ioannidis's group, please request access to these queues when you submit your application.

Google Cloud

Consult with Prof. Ioannidis on whether you will be conducting experiments on Google Cloud. If so, you will find information on how to access the cluster on the GCP wiki.

Vacation and Travel

If you plan to be away from the lab, either on vacation or work related travel (e.g., to attend a conference), complete all of the following steps:

  • Email Prof. Ioannidis to inform him of your travel plans. Give sufficient notice (e.g., several weeks in advance) especially for absence longer than a day.
  • After you have obtained approval, add your absence as an event in the Spiral Unavailability Calendar and invite both yourself and Prof. Ioannidis to the event.
  • After you have created this event, send a courtesy email to all your collaborators (other SPIRAL members, external collaborators) to inform them of the your absence and its duration.
