Prospective Graduate Students Please Read!
I am interested in the latest generation of datacenter architectures that integrate processing, storage, and networking at an unprecedented scale. My students and I are working on instrumentation and resource management frameworks that can operate at datacenter-scales to assess the health and allocate resources, including power, for applications running on tens of thousands of computers. Read about xTrace (NSDI07), Ruckus, HxTrace (xTrace instrumented Hadoop) and other cool research opportunities in the RADLab!
