Yi Sun


B.S. in Computer Science
Fudan Universitysuny21@m.fudan.edu.cn

My name is Yi Sun (ε­™δΈ€), and I am a senior undergraduate at Fudan University. My research interests span Machine Learning Systems and Operating Systems, with a particular focus on full-stack support for emerging workloads (e.g., LLM inference) and interconnect technologies (e.g., CXL, RDMA).

Recently, my work has centered on inference engine support for test-time scaling algorithms and efficient memory tiering solutions for CXL. Beyond systems-level support, I am also interested in efficient model architectures and their impact on performance (e.g., long-context capabilities).

You can find my CV here.

INFO

I am applying for PhD programs (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.
