About
Hey, I am Jing Lan (Ching Lan in Wade-Giles), an MPhil student at CSE, The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK). I am fortunate to be supervised by Prof. James Cheng.
I obtained my BEng degree from Sun Yat-sen University, where I did RA with Prof. Dan Huang. I spent two years (one as leader) on HPC competitions with SYSU Student Cluster Competition Team.
Research Interests
I have a broad interest in building efficient distributed systems. I focus on exploring systems’ interaction with the hardware and their application patterns.
At CUHK, my ongoing project is an in-memory, disaggregated graph OLAP engine designed for concurrently handling highly skewed workloads.
