关于
My research interests are programming models to program distributed, parallel, or concurrent or systems conveniently, efficiently, and correctly.
I am particularly interested in the following topics (from more recent to less recent):
Advancing the Serverless Paradigm
- See the slides for my recent talk at the Sky PL Seminar.
- See our VLDB paper on the architecture of Netherite, a new execution engine for Durable Functions.
- Netherite was built by MSR in collaboration with the Azure Durable Functions team and is now generally available.
- Check out our OOPSLA semantics paper.
- For some earlier material, see our initial draft on serverless workflows on ArXiv, or the slides for my talk at Shonan Village.
