Operating Systems and Cloud Computing
This area focuses on the design, implementation, and evaluation of systems software for a large spectrum of platforms from large-scale data centers to server machines to small form factor mobile and embedded devices. Current research activities focus on cloud computing systems hosted on geo-distributed data centers and explore themes related to scheduling for efficiency and cost-efficacy in private clouds, cloud economics, autoscaling, exploiting emergent “wimpy” public cloud offerings, consistency/performance/cost trade-offs in geo-distributed storage combining replication and erasure coding, and energy efficiency.
