Welcome to my home on Internet. I am an Associate Professor at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, Department of Computer Science. My research interest are broad in the system area of computer science, with focus on parallel and high performance computing, parallel programming model and compiler techniques, computer architecture and systems. I have been teaching undergraduate and graduate courses in computer systems, including data structures, parallel programming, computer architecture, and programming languages and compiler. I am also in the OpenMP Architectural Review Board (ARB) and member of the OpenMP language subcommittee.
Research
My research interest are broad in the system area of computer science, with focus on parallel and high performance computing, parallel programming model and compiler techniques, computer architecture and systems. Our recent research work has been focused on developing a new parallel programming system for the future exascale computers and emerging architectures. The most recent work has been concentrating on creating programming systems for heterogeneous and manycore systems with accelerators based on OpenMP, and for addressing the power wall and memory wall challenges of existing and emerging computer systems. Research project and publications can be found the website of my research group, the High Performance Computing Architecture and System Research Group.
