I am a software engineer at Google, where I work in the area of mobile computing, distributed systems, and networking. Prior to joining Google, I was a professor of Computer Science at Harvard University from 2003 until 2010, and a senior researcher at Intel Research, Berkeley from 2002-2003. I did my PhD in Computer Science at UC Berkeley (2002) and my bachelor's in Computer Science at Cornell University (1996). My research interests span a broad range of topics in the space of operating systems, networks, distributed systems, embedded systems, and programming languages. List of publications and talks Volatile and Decentralized (my blog) My curriculum vitae (last updated December 2010) Projects At Google, I head up a team in Seattle focused on mobile web performance. Check out this blog post for some background on what we do. At Harvard, I was the head of the Harvard Sensor Networks Lab. Some of my previous research projects included: Pixie: A resource-aware OS for sensor networks Lance: Utility-driven signal collection in high-data-rate sensor networks Mercury: A wearable sensor platform for high-resolution motion analysis RoboBees: An autonomous colony of robotic pollinators WhiteFi: Networking in the UHF white spaces Monitoring active volcanoes with wireless sensors CitySense: An urban-scale open sensor network testbed Macroprogramming languages and abstractions for sensor networks CodeBlue: Sensor networks for medical care MoteTrack - RF signature-based indoor localization Hourglass and Stream-Based Overlay Networks - Network architectures for Internet-scale stream processing TinyOS and NesC - OS and programming language support for sensor networks SEDA - An architecture for well-conditioned, highly-concurrent server applications Ninja - Infrastructure for scalable, composable Internet services Jaguar - High performance networking and I/O for Java VIA, U-Net, and U-Net/SLE - Fast, user-level network interfaces UC Berkeley Millennium - A campus-wide cluster-of-clusters I am the author of the O'Reilly book  Running Linux, 5th EditionTravel photos: India (Aug '06, Dec '01), Belize and Guatemala, China, Ecuador (Aug '07, July/Aug '05, June '05, July '04), Morocco, Ethiopia,Papua New Guinea, Laos, Bolivia, Malaysia and Indonesia, Nepal.
