On Monday October 28th, 2019 our dear colleague and friend Elias Kyriakides passed away peacefully, with his wife Stella by his side, after a long and courageous battle with cancer. He is remembered by many people, all over the world, as a unique individual; first and foremost an exceptional human being, a kind and giving, spiritual person of integrity and uncompromising values; a talented teacher and great mentor to his numerous students and researchers; a supportive and stimulating colleague; a beautiful mind and an exceptional researcher; and, above all, a friend. Elias’ passing leaves a great void. We hope that this book of Remembrances & Condolences will allow his many colleagues, students and friends all over the world to share their tributes, emotions and memories, and help them celebrate and honor him. Elias was a leading expert in the areas of electric power systems and critical infrastructure systems with an emphasis on wide area monitoring and control, power system operations, and the integration of renewable energy sources. He was a member of the faculty of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) Department since 2004 and a co-founder of the KIOS Research and Innovation Center of Excellence. His contributions were countless and will remain influential with the passage of time. Elias will continue to inspire the many people who had the privilege to work and collaborate with him and his legacy will carry on through the excellent work of his students and the support of his colleagues and collaborators.
