Biography

I am a Tenure-track Assistant Professor in the School of Computing and Augmented Intelligence (SCAI) at ASU since Fall 2025. Before that, I was a computer architecture researcher in the Samsung Memory Solutions Lab (MSL) with a Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from Purdue University where I was advised by Prof. Changhee Jung. Prior to joining Purdue University, I worked as a compiler engineer with focus on optimizing GCC and Clang/LLVM compilers at Alibaba Group.



I am looking for self-motivated PhD students to start in Spring/Fall 2026. Potential research projects include hardware/software co-design for performance and reliability issues. Please send me an email with your CV, transcript, and English test report, if you are interested in working with me.


Research

At ASU, I lead the Phoenix Architecture and Compiler Exploration (PACE) Lab, focusing on compilers and computer architectures. Specifically, my lab aims to co-design compilers and computer architectures, driven by application-level demand, addressing performance, reliability, and security issues of computing systems including energy harvesting systems and data centers. My research work is typically published at top-tier venues in computer architecture, high-performance computing, and programming languages, e.g., ISCA, MICRO, ICS, and PLDI.
