My research interests are Operating Systems and Machine Learning Systems. Recently, I have been focusing on the management of heterogeneous resources:
Heterogeneous Computing: Developing SLO-aware scheduling policies for LLM inference.
Heterogeneous Memory and Storage: Building tiered memory-aware runtimes for emerging technologies such as RDMA and CXL.
INFO
I am applying to PhD programs starting in Fall 2026, with interests including (but not limited to) Operating Systems, Memory Disaggregation, LLM Infrastructure. If you'd like to discuss further, feel free to reach out via email.

🏫 Teaching
- Migrated the lab platform from Raspberry Pi to the virt generic virtual platform by rewriting the hardware abstraction layer to simplify the environment for students. Developed new lab exercises focused on condition variables and asynchronous I/O.
- Developed labs focusing on Linux features, including mmap, userfaultfd, io_uring and more.
