Brief Bio

I'm a performance engineer at Facebook. I earned my PhD degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Cornell University in 2017, where I worked in M3 Architecture Research Lab led by Prof. José Martínez. My research focuses on scalable and dynamic multi-resource allocation in multi-core systems. My paper was nominated to be the best paper candidate in HPCA 2015, and I'm the winner of Cavium Octeon Trophy in 2014, and Cavium ThunderX Trophy in 2015-2016. My research also received Recognition Award in Bell Labs Future X Day Student Research Competition.

Before joining Cornell, I received my bachelor's degree in Electronic Engineering from Shanghai Jiao Tong University, in 2011. I was also an exchange student at Georgia Institute of Technology, where I worked with Prof. Hsien-Hsin S. Lee in 3D memories. My CV can be found here.
