Noam Manaker Morag

PhD Student

I am a first-year PhD student at the School of Computer Science and Engineering at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, under the supervision of Moshe Babaioff.

I completed my MSc in Computer Science at the Hebrew University in 2024 and my BSc in Computer Science at Haifa University in 2023.

From 2022 to 2023 I was a student developer at Toga Networks, where I developed communication algorithms for High Performance Computing, emphasizing uses for Computational Fluid Dynamics.

Research

I am interested in problems at the border of Computer Science, Game Theory, and Economics. In particular, I am interested in how strategic behavior can affect the outcomes of algorithms.

Research Subjects:

Mechanism Design.
Algorithmic Game Theory.
Approximation Algorithms.
Truthfulness.
Fairness.

More About Me

I practice competitive programming, and represented Haifa University in the 2021 SWERC programming competition and represented the Hebrew University in the 2025 SWERC competition.
I lived several years in Argentina and speak Spanish fluently.
I am deeply interested in physics and am currently taking physics courses alongside my PhD studies.
I have built a robot that can solve a Rubik's cube in world record time: https://youtu.be/BMnCONZEpBU
