My research interests are primarily in the area of computing system design in the development of providing sustainable data services in any system. A common thread in my research is in understanding and rebuilding the traditional computing systems to meet the new design goals, such as sustainability, and constraints, like resource limitation, reliability, and scalability. Broadly speaking, I am a system researcher with a focus on (the design and implementation of) generic optimal and operational data-oriented (GOOD) computing systems.
