I am now a 2nd year Master student in Computer Science at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. I am also a research assistant at the Emerging Parallel Computing Center, supervised by Prof. Quan Chen. Before that, I received my Bachelor degree at Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 2022.

My research interest include serverless and its intersection with large-scale data analytics. My research focuses on leveraging the unique attributes of serverless computing - such as fine-grained resource control, pay-per-use billing, and minimal user effort — to develop efficient, scalable, and cost-effective data analytic systems. My recent project, FaaSGraph, introducing serverless paradigm into graph processing systems, has resulted in significant enhancements in end-to-end performance, memory consumption, and cost efficiency.
