In protocol design, perfection has been reached not when there is nothing
left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.

I am involved with two of the major systems projects at the Cornell Computer Science Department: The Horus and the Cornell ATM Cluster Projects. I think my research interests are best described by:

Low latency and high bandwith communication support for highly reliable distributed systems with real time requirments.

I focus on the system design and engineering issues. Some of the things I am working on:

Horus is the brainchild of Robbert van Renesse and Ken Birman. The ATM Cluster work is done cooperation with Thorsten von Eicken and the Multimedia & Video-On-Demand Horus experiments are in concert with Brian Smith.

I am responsible for CS 515, a Practicum in Distributed Systems, and teach a number of lectures on network protocols and high-speed network technology in CS 514: Practical Distributed Systems.
