About Me

I am a PhD. student at the Stony Brook University in the File System Lab (FSL) group. I am working with Prof. Erez Zadok. Before joining FSL, I have worked with Prof. Mike Ferdman at COMPAS Lab.

Research Interests

I am mainly interested in Operating Systems, File Systems, Storage Systems, Compilers, and Computer Architecture. One of my main goals is building fully adaptive self-driven systems software. I have been working on building scalable and verifiable system benchmarking.

Projects

You can look at all current and finished projects at Projects page. I am currently working on:

• KML: Bringing Machine Learning to Linux Kernel.
• Re-Animator: High quality tracing is important.
