Ed Nightingale
SENIOR RESEARCHER
.

I enjoy working on projects related to systems research.  Lately, that has involved OS support for new memory technologies, such as Phase Change Memory, data mining, heterogeneous hardware architectures, and large-scale storage systems.

I received my Ph.D. from the University of Michigan in 2007. 
My advisor was Jason Flinn.
