Konstantina Mellou
Principal Researcher
About
I am a Principal Researcher in the Machine Learning and Optimization (MLO) group in MSR Redmond.
I received my Ph.D. in Operations Research from MIT under the supervision of Patrick Jaillet. Before that, I obtained my degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens in Greece.
My research interests are in the area of optimization and AI with applications in cloud computing, transportation and logistics. In particular, my current focus is on Cloud Efficiency Optimization (cloud supply chain optimization, datacenter management, VM allocation), and Generative AI for optimization and decision intelligence (OptiGuide).
