My research passion lies in computer systems. My recent focus is on exploring the fundamental principles of the systems for Artificial Intelligence (AI). I am among the first to discover and advocate the now well-known design principles for AI systems, including the hardware-aligned tile abstraction for AI compilers and the relaxed monotonicity for vector stores. Moreover, I am exploring ways to build a generic reasoning engine to solve complex intelligent tasks, including math, system engineering, and other important domains, using agentic and neuro-symbolic approaches.
As a researcher, I also engage in public academic services, including serving on the program committees of ASPLOS (2022), EuroSys (2023, 2025, 2026), OSDI (2026), SOSP (2026).
We are recruiting interns the whole year, details here.
