I work in the eXtreme Computing Group as an architect on the Orleans project. My focus is on run-times and programming models for building distributed systems that scale to hundreds of thousands of servers, run geodistributed, and are reliable, available, low latency, and reasonably efficient.

Some of the specific areas I work on include efficient messaging; resource allocation and management across large numbers of servers in multiple data centers; maintenance and versioning of large distributed applications; and failure handling in large-scale distributed systems.
