Research
My
research interests include operating system, file and storage system, and
high-performance computing.
GRA Opening
There
is a GRA (Graduate Research Assistantship) position available in the group
starting from the fall of 2012 for new Ph.D students.
Interested students are welcome to contact Dr. Jiang with their CVs and
transcripts.
