About Me
I received my PhD from the Computer Science Department at the University of Virginia, advised by Professor Kevin Skadron, the director of Center for Research in Intelligent Storage and Processing in Memory (CRISP). My research explores accelerator design for machine learning applications, mapping and optimization of modern applications on emerging processors and accelerators, processing in memory (PIM), GPGPU, parallelism and optimization, MPSoC and NoC, and heuristic optimization.
