I am an assistant professor in the Department of Computer Science at Duke University. Before Duke, I was a postdoctoral researcher in the RISE lab at UC Berkeley, working with Professor Ion Stoica. I completed my Ph.D. in the Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science and Engineering at University of Washington, advised by Professor Tom Anderson and Professor Arvind Krishnamurthy.

[Curriculum Vitae]

I am always recruiting computer science PhD students. Send me an email with your resume if you are interested in building cool computer systems with me!

If you are a Duke Undergrad/MS student and are interested in doing research with me, send me an email.

I do research broadly in operating systems, distributed systems, and computer networks. I currently focus on the following directions:

(1) OS design and implementation for efficient and flexible containers.
(2) High-performance distributed data-processing systems.
(3) Correct and efficient middleboxes & NFV.
