Short Biography

I’m a fifth-year Ph.D. student at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. My research interests focus on parallel computing and GPU computing using C++ and CUDA. During my recent four-year Ph.D. studies, I have published five top-tier papers (DAC 2023&2024, Euro-Par 2024&2021, ICPP 2022) and one top-tier journal (IEEE TPDS 2022), all as the first author. I received second place in ACM/PACT Student Research Competition (SRC 2022). I also received champion award in a research competition (IEEE HPEC Challenge 2020). I was a presenter at the CppCon 2023, CppNow 2023, and CppCon 2021. I also gave talks at MediaTek Research, Berkeley National Lab, and NVIDIA Research. My recent work focuses on building a CPU-GPU task programming system using modern C++ Coroutine and CUDA.
