Biography
Chen Ding is an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the
University of Rochester, Rochester, New York. He received his Ph.D. from Rice
University, M.S. from Michigan Tech., and B.S. from Beijing University. For
research he is interested in modeling the composite and emergent patterns in
large scale program behavior, including program locality, reference affinity,
and program phases. Based on these models, he develops software techniques for
program transformation, memory management, dynamic parallelization, and
behavior-oriented programming. He received the Early Career Principal
Investigator award from the Office of Science of the U.S. Department of Energy,
the CAREER award from National Science Foundation, the Faculty Fellowship of IBM
Center for Advanced Studies, and a best-paper award for his work with Ken
Kennedy on compiler enhancement of global cache reuse. With Trishul Chilimbi and
Frank Mueller, he co-organized the first ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on Memory System
Performance (MSP). He is a visiting researcher at Microsoft Research Redmond
from February to August 2007.
Dr. Ding received a 2006 Phoenix and SSCLI Award for his project Adaptive Heap
Size Control Using Phoenix and .Net Virtual Machine. |
