📄 Short Bio

I am a doctoral reseacher & Ph.D. candidate supervised by Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jörg Ott at Chair of Connected Mobility, TUM, advised by Prof. Nitinder Mohan at TU Delft, mentored by Prof. Dirk Kutscher at HKUST(GZ). My current research interests lie in Accelerating Critical Applications by Edge Computing and AI. Before joining TUM, I obtained my M.Phil. degree from HKUST(GZ), where I was luckily advised by Prof. Pan Hui, Prof. Gareth Tyson, and Prof. Dirk Kutscher. Previously, I was a full-time Engineer researching system performance optimization at Huawei and lucky to work with Mr. Jing Liu, Dr. Wei Wang, and Dr. Sui Zhou. I obtained my M.Eng and B.Eng from Fudan University and Harbin Engineering University in 2020 and 2017 respectively. I have internships in Alipay and eBay.

Edge Computing, Fog Computing
- supporting critical applications latency-wise and efficiency-wise
- e.g., offload DL inference tasks from mobile/IoT devices to edge servers
Networked Systems
- ML-enabled, e.g., ML-based task scheduling
- enabling-ML, e.g., distributed Inference
Programming Language Runtime and OS (@Huawei)
- Golang runtime scheduler
- OS kernel optimization
