About

I am a fifth-year Ph.D. candidate at City University of Hong Kong, advised by Prof. Hong Xu, and Prof. Cong Wang. Previously, I obtained my bachelor's degree in Computer Science from City University of Hong Kong in 2019. My research interests lie primarily in the area of Systems for Machine Learning (SysML).

[Update] I am currently a visiting researcher at The University of Texas at Austin, under the supervision of Prof. Aditya Akella.

[Open to job opportunities] I am in the job market with the expected graduation in Spring 2024, hopefully :) I am currently searching for job openings in the industry and open to relocation.

Research Topics

  • Distributed Training & Inference: Accelerating large-scale distributed DNN workloads

  • GPU Cluster Scheduling: Designing efficient scheduling algorithms for DNN tasks

  • Simulation: Building accurate performance simulator of DNN training workloads

  • Adaptive & Sparse Computation: Exploring new computing paradigms to scale DNN models

  • At present, I am actively engaged in constructing efficient systems tailored for large language models.
