Research Experience (Published ONLY)

• February 2025 - May 2025: EMT-Linux Flattened Page Table (FPT) Support¹
  • Supervisor: Siyuan Chai, Professor Tianyin Xu
  • Implemented the FPT idea in Linux through the EMT framework, reused and extended existing page-management, TLB-management, and address-translation mechanisms, while retaining backward compatibility with radix paging;
  • Built a DynamoRIO-based measurement harness to quantify page-walk latency, IPC, and cache/TLB statistics, showing up to 15.3% lower page-walk latency, 3.7% fewer cycles, and 3.6% higher IPC versus baseline radix paging;
  • Automated a reproducible evaluation pipeline, contributing to the acquisition of USENIX Reproducibility Badge.
• April 2024 - January 2025: MAINTVISION²
  • Supervisor: Beitong Tian, Professor Klara Nahrstedt
  • Developed an embedded system on ESP32-CAM to compute analog gauges’ real-time readings by computer vision, targeting analog gauges embedded in huge equipments and achieving 7.5 readings per second with \(\pm 1.81^\circ\) accuracy;
  • Designed alerting and image-buffering mechanisms to notify users if reading deviates from the predefined thresholds;
  • Built a communication system between devices and the server by the MQTT protocol, to enable centralized control.
