I am a tenure-track assistant professor in Department of Computer Science at San Diego State University, leading the :star: Pisces Lab :star:. I obtained my Ph.D. in Computer Science at Louisiana State University, advised by Prof. Qingyang Wang.

My research interest lies in performance and scalability analysis of various cloud systems, with the aim of achieving good performance and high resource efficiency for evolving systems in cloud environments. We employ timeline analysis to investigate various factors that cause the performance variations. Moreover, we design and evaluate automated and intelligent frameworks to improve the system performance.

My collaborators are from Augusta University, Georgia Tech, Fujitsu Laboratories Ltd, etc. I have worked as a summer research intern at the University of Chicago, specifically in the Globus Labs.

To prospective students: I’m always looking for students who have a solid background in computer systems and share my research interests. If you are interested, please e-mail me with your Resume. 👉 Welcome to check out our open positions
