Welcome to Dr. Liting Hu's Experimental and Virtualized Systems (ELVES) Lab
Our lab conducts Experimental Computer Systems research in the areas of Stream Processing Systems, Cloud and Edge Computing, Distributed Systems, and Systems Virtualization. Examples include stream processing systems (with Spark Streaming, Storm, Flink), identifying threats (e.g., fake news, rumors, social bots) in online social networks, federated learning systems, container as a service (with Docker and Kubernetes), and resource management in large-scale data centers (with Xen and KVM).
Our lab aims to train students towards becoming first-class system researchers and system builders. We are looking for passionate new Ph.D. students, Postdocs, and master students to join the team! See openings.
We are grateful to the following federal agencies and Institutes for supporting our research efforts.
