Papadopoulos received a B.A. in systems science from the University of California, San Diego in 1979, and an S.M. and Ph.D. in electrical engineering and computer science from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 1983 and 1988. At some time he held positions at Hewlett-Packard and Honeywell. While a graduate student, he worked at the MIT spinoff PictureTel in its early days. His dissertation was on a dataflow architecture microprocessor, under his advisor Arvind.[2] Along with David E. Culler, he developed a simplified approach to dataflow execution in a project named Monsoon.[3]
Papadopoulos became assistant professor at MIT in 1988 and associate professor in May 1993. He helped start Ergo Computing in 1988, and Exa Corporation in 1991. He was chief architect at Thinking Machines Corporation starting in 1992.[4][5] His research applied massively parallel techniques to high-performance computing.[6]
He joined Sun Microsystems in September 1994. After serving as chief scientist for the server division, in December 1995 he became chief technical officer (CTO) of SMCC (Sun's hardware division), and CTO of the entire company in April 1998.[1] He left Sun in February 2010.[4][7][8]
