Contributed to the field of design and performance analysis of computer systems, including proposing the 'All-Can-Win Theorem', demonstrating that policies favoring small jobs can also be beneficial for large jobs.
Research Experience
Focuses on developing new algorithms and techniques for resource allocation, task/job scheduling, load sharing, etc.; explores correlated arrival processes under high-variability workloads.
Background
An expert in the performance analysis and design of computer systems, particularly distributed systems. Uses analytical models to improve system performance metrics such as response time, energy use, throughput, etc. Her research challenges some conventional wisdoms and introduces new algorithms for resource allocation.
