I am interested in all aspects of high-performance computing, but especially parallel and distributed systems. As well, I have a continuing interest in parallel algorithms for basic problems in computing science, such as sorting and searching. Achieving higher performance through parallelism has been a goal in computer science for decades. What changes are the specific problems that people want to solve and the hardware and software technology available. Today, in addition to scientific and engineering applications, parallelism is being applied to improve the scalability of Web servers and other network-centric applications. New high-speed networks with gigabits of bandwidth and programmable controllers (e.g., Myrinet, Gigabit Ethernet, ATM) make it much more practical to create clusters and networks of workstations.
My research program centers on systems software for parallel and distributed computing. I have developed the Aurora distributed shared data system and its unique approach to providing flexibility in optimizing data communication. I am also interested in operating systems issues with gigabit networks, such as reducing the interrupt and data movement overheads in communication protocols. The goal is to minimize latency and deliver the full network bandwidth to applications. To achieve high performance, it is important to have both efficient parallel algorithms and software that can fully exploit the raw performance of the hardware.
