Research Experience
-
Currently, I am working on a project studying how to extend and
complement the Internet with the literal use of the postal system. In
particular, my work is studying how to do content synchronization
effectively inside a network composed of postal links and other low
bandwidth links, where effectiveness is defined by some combination of
time, cost and content quality.
-
In summer
2004, I worked as an intern at IBM's Almaden Research Center. My work
involves enforcing data immutability at the low level of a content immutable storage
system.
-
I participated in a project of designing a distributed mobile storage
system for storage elements connected by a network of non-uniform quality. Our system employs a location- and topology-sensitive multicast-like solution for locating data, lazy peer-to-peer propagation
of invalidation information for ensuring consistency, and a distributed snapshot mechanism for supporting sharing.
-
I participated in a project of modeling the power consumption behaviors
of magnetic hard-disks. Dempsey, an accurate disk power consumption simulation environment, including tools that automatically extract
performance and power consumption parameters from a given disk drive, was developed.
-
In summer 2002, I worked as an intern at HP's Cambridge Research Lab. Inspired by the idea behind Semantic Web, I explored a new way
of
constructing self-adaptive and easily extensible control systems based
on semantic info and inference rules.
-
For my general exam at Princeton, I worked on a project studying the
interaction between mobile storage alternatives and file system design
strategies, and its impact on the power efficiency of mobile storage system.
-
For my master's degree, I designed and implemented a hybrid Java
VM, which can do JIT compilation and bytecode interpretation simultaneously
on multi-processor machines and thus make it possible to combine the merits of the two Java execution modes.
-
For my bachelor's degree, I participated in the design and
implementation of TIPS (Tsinghua Interactive Parallelization System), an automatic parallelization system for Fortran77, featuring the ability to extract user knowledge interactively to improve parallelization
results. My responsibility was the data dependence analysis part.
