Research Interests

I am a research faculty of Computer Science and Engineering at the Polytechnic Institute of New York University (NYU-Poly). I received both my B.S. (in Computer Science, 2005) and Ph.D. (in Computing, 2011) from the University of Utah. My current work focuses on HyperFlow, a parallel streaming framework for large-scale visualization where data-flows can be executed efficiently on clusters of machines with multiple CPUs and GPUs.
