Ph.D. Computer Science, Cornell University. Research area: Networking. Adviser: Prof. Nate Foster.
My research focuses on building robust and scalable networks that ensure predictable performance despite unpredictable operating conditions. Applications today require networks to provide increasingly strict performance guarantees and not just high performance. However, networks continue to provide best-effort performance based on the design principles of the early Internet. To bridge this gap, my research takes a multi-disciplinary approach spanning architecture, PL, systems, and theory to build holistic networking solutions—from low-level hardware to high-level abstractions and algorithms.
