I am a second-year Ph.D. student at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, advised by Prof. Tsung-Wei (TW) Huang. My research centers around heterogeneous computing and parallel computing, specifically exploring high-performance computing techniques to accelerate graph partitioning algorithms using C++ and CUDA.
