I am a Ph.D. candidate at Computer Systems Laboratory, Stanford University. I joined Stanford and VLSI Research Group in winter 2002. I'm working on the Smart Memories project, under supervision of professor Mark Horowitz.

My Research

Smart Memories is a scalable, reconfigurable, multiprocessor system which supports multiple programming models. My focus is on the design of a reconfigurable memory system, which can provide support for programming models, such as Multi-threading, Streaming and Transactions (TCC) effectively. Smart Memories leverages commercial processors, Xtensa LX, from Tensilica. In addition, it has reconfigurable protocol controllers to implement different requirements of the memory system for supported execution modes.
