| Distributed Systems Group |
I do research broadly in the area of large-scale distributed systems. My research group, the Distributed Systems Group (DSG), conducts research in the area of distributed spatial analysis, cloud computing and runtimes, real-time stream processing, Internet of Things (IoT), analytics and storage frameworks (with the Big Data group), epidemiology, dissemination of streams, discrete event simulations, health informatics, and virtualization.
The research group meetings are held every Friday, from 10:00-11:00 am in CSB 305. The group includes both graduate and undergraduate students who contribute to different projects.
