Don't think my facial flaws are glaring enough? Click on the picture ... *sigh*

I am a Phd student with Prof. Kale at the Department of Computer Science. I am currently working on performance analysis and visualization techniques for parallel applications on large-scale machines in the Parallel Programming Laboratory. In particular, I am studying the capabilities afforded to analysis and visualization by what-if techniques in generating performance information.

I work with the group to help with porting efforts, efficiency and scaling issues as well as the general performance studies of NAMD.

I am originally from Singapore. Here's some gooky stuff I've decided not to put on the main page.

You can also visit my Personal Home Page where I keep pictures and movies of my time here at UIUC.

Curriculum Vitae:

My Curriculum Vitae (PDF). It is not quite as professional as I would like it and still fairly incomplete. Useful to describe my academic profile though.

Research Interests:

Thumbnails of various views from the Projections Performance Analysis Tool showing the performance of an apoa1 simulation using NAMD. From left to right: 1) A highly detailed timeline view of apoa1 run with 256 processors; 2) A time profile of the execution times of various parallel activities for apoa1 run on 8192 bluegene processors; 3) An overview of the utilization of NAMD when simulating the apoa1 benchmark on 8192 bluegene processors.

* Parallel Application Performance Analysis and Visualization.

* Parallel Languages and Programming Models.

* Computer Architecture.
