Chenhao (Vito) Wu

I am a first year Ph.D. student at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, under the supervision of Prof. Guoliang Xing. My research primarily dedicates to some of the technically very challenging problems in the broad area of computer systems.

Prior to my Ph.D. study, I received my bachelor degree in Computer Science and Engineering from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen. During my bachelor study, I have directed a number of software implementations that basically in collaborations with my colleagues to bring algorithms in fields of information theory, coding theory and cryptography into actual implementations.

I found my interest in building real systems and administering all details related to it (e.g., arch, interfaces, networks, operating systems, analysis and verifications). In particular, my recent research concentrates on measuring, designing, and optimizing ways contemporary network stack (i.e., OS, NIC, protocols) interact with applications in other disciplines.
