【講演概要】In this talk, I would like to talk about the current and future direction of the software research in Korea. KIISE is the most prestigious institutions that represents the engineers and scientists. We will briefly introduce the current status of the KIISE and its role for the software development in Korea.
【略歴】He is ICT Endowed Chair Professor at School of Electrical Engineering, KAIST since 2029. He did his BS and MS in Dept. of Computer Science, Seoul National University, Seoul, Korea in 1990 and 1992, respectively. He received his Ph. D in Computer Science from University of Minnesota in 1997. He worked for Intel Corp. as Server Performance Analyst till 1999. From 1999 till 2019, he was with Dept. of Computer Science, Hanyang University, Seoul, Korea. He was a dept. head and a director of Center for File and Storage Systems Technology (CFSR) at Hanyang University. He was awarded “Outstanding Researcher Award”, Hanyang University(2016) and “Gaheon Outstanding Research Award” from Korean Institute of Information Scientists and Engineers (KIISE)(2017). Funded by Samsung Electronics, he developed Namsan Filesystem. With Namsan Filesystem, he was awarded “Best Academy-Industry Collaboration Practice in Samsung Electronics” in 2006. Namsan Filesystem was deployed in the commercial TV products. His work on IO stack optimization in Android platform identified the root cause of the IO inefficiencies in the Android smartphones (USENIX ATC 2013, best paper award). His work on IO stack design on the Flash Storage proposes a new way of designing the filesystem, block layer and device firmware for the Flash storage (USENIX FAST 2018, best paper award). He is known for his work on the Android IO stack optimization, filesystem and block layer design for SSD and NVRAM. He has been PC members for systems venue for USENIX FAST, USENIX ATC, ACM Hotstorage including PC Chair at HotStorage (2021) and PC Chair at USENIX FAST (2024).
