PhD, Computer Science

Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech)

• Advised by Dr Ali Butt, a professor at Virginia Tech, leading Distributed Systems and Storage Lab at Virginia Tech

Bachelor of Computer Software Engineering

University of Tehran, Iran

Research Assistant at Distributed System and Storage Lab at Virginia Tech

Virginia Tech

• Contributing to Metis project ongoing which is about improving the cachability of the deep learning workloads
• Leading a collaborative research with Analytics & AI Methods at Scale Group at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) on analytically recognizing the behavior of the users and jobs submitted to HPC systems to improve the I/O efficiency of the HPC systems. We have recently started collaborating with Suren Byna and Jean Luca Bez from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL). The work has been kicked off since the time I interned at ORNL in summer 2021

Student Assistant at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), internship

Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL)

• Pursuing my research on I/O variance characterization in HPC systems under supervision of Suren Byna and Jean Luca Bez.

Instructor

Virginia Tech

• Teaching CS3214, Computer Systems, at Virginia Tech in Fall 2022 and Spring 2023

Internship at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Analytics & AI Methods at Scale Group.

Oak Ridge National Laboratory

• Supervised by Feiyi Wang, Sarp Oral, Ahmad Maroof Karimi and Arnab Kamur Paul
• First studied the literature on I/O characterization at application level to get insights for building an application and user aware I/O scheduler
• Then collected I/O information of different users and different applications, and showed the user’s behaviour affects the I/O performance quite a lot
• And finally, presented my work at Internship Symposium held for the interns joined the national lab in summer 2021

• Being appointed as the student volunteer for SC22 hosted in Dallas, TX, US
