About me

I received my Ph.D. degree of Computer Science from University of Hong Kong in 2024, under the supervision of Prof. Heming Cui. My research interests are in systems and security. In my past Ph.D. career, I mainly focused on using trusted hardware like Intel SGX to build secure and performant distributed computing systems (including data networking systems, distributed databases, and secure AI serving systems).

I review several top-tier (CCF-A) journals, such as TPDS, TDSC, JSAC, and ToN. I was the web chair of APSys 2021. I was the Artifact Evaluation Committee for SOSP 2021.

💥【News】💥 I’ve been selected for the 10th Young Elite Scientists Sponsorship Program (青托工程，国家级青年人才项目，Period: 2024-2026)
