Biography
I have a wide variety of research interests, mostly pertaining directly to data storage in supercomputing environments:
- Parallel and distributed storage systems
- Erasure coding and fault tolerance
- Low-level (block or object) storage devices
- Heterogeneous computing (e.g., GPUs, accelerators)
Education
Ph.D. in Computer Science, University of Alabama at Birmingham, under the advisement of Dr. Anthony Skjellum.
Dissertation: A Highly Reliable GPU-Based RAID System
