Biography
Currently I am a fourth-year Ph.D. student of College of Computer Science and Technology,
Zhejiang University. Before my Ph.D. career, I
was an undergraduate student from Wuhan University of Technology and
received my B.Eng. degree in Computer Science and Technology on June, 2019.
In September 2019, I was admitted to study for a Ph.D. degree in Zhejiang University under the supervision of Prof.
Shuiguang Deng without entrance examination.
[CV] [简历]
From Sep. 2022 to Aug. 2023, I am a joint PhD student at Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore, under the supervision of Prof. Xueyan Tang.

Research Interests
Currently I am focusing on Cloud & Edge Computing, Distributed Computing & Systems, and Optimization Algorithm Design & Analysis.
Recently, I pay great attention to the following topics:
- Resource Allocation & Job Scheduling Algorithms with Theoretical Guarantees
Scheduling algorithms are key to realizing improvements in resource utilization for the cloud-native applications.
I am interested with the design and analysis of scheduling algorithms for large-scale clusters, DCs, cluster federations, etc.
Currently I put special effort on deep learning workload scheduling in GPU clusters.
- Ready-for-Use Cluster Schedulers in K8s-Native Systems
K8s (Kubernetes) is an open-source system for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications.
Kube-scheduler is the default component responsible for the scheduling of pods (a set of inter-related containers). By leveraging
the power of CRD (Custom Resource Definition), customer schedulers can be designed. I am interested with the R&D of
custom schedulers for various batch & elastic workloads.
