Researcher

RDMA Database

Collaborating on the development of a general-purpose, object-level RDMA transaction system. Identified bottlenecks and implemented database benchmarks, significantly increasing transaction throughput.

• Advisors: Prof. Huaicheng Li, Sumit Monga
• Doubled TPCC throughput from 22K to 45K transactions per second on 8 threads compared with the state-of-the-art

Peer Mentor

Big Data Systems Peer Mentor

• Assisted over 50 students with debugging issues in big data systems and Linux environments, enhancing understanding of systems like HDFS, Spark, Kafka, and Cassandra.
• Gained practical experience with Google Cloud Platform (GCP)

Researcher

Zygote Tree Algorithm

Developed the Zygote Tree algorithm to preload Python modules based on package dependencies and usage patterns, significantly reducing serverless startup latency. Proposed optimizations and integrated the algorithm with OpenLambda, enhancing throughput and reducing latency.

• Advisor: Instructor Tyler R. Caraza-Harter
• Improved throughput by 4.3× and reduced p-95 latency by 2.5×
• Performed performance analysis on container primitives like cgroup and unshare

Forklift: Fitting Zygote Trees for Faster Package Initialization

10th International Workshop on Serverless Computing (WoSC 10)

Distributed Systems (MIT 6.824)

• Finished MapReduce, Raft, Fault-tolerant K/V service projects, excelling in rigorous testing scenarios, with the Raft implementation notably passing ∼2000 tests.
• Delved into core distributed systems papers including Raft, Time-Clocks in a Distributed System, MapReduce, and FaRM
