Richard Black
Research Software Development Engineer
Richard is currently a Research Software Development Engineer at Microsoft
Research Cambridge, where he is part of the Systems and
Networking group. His research interests include performance
analysis of distributed systems, operating systems and networking.
Recent projects include:
Constellation,
and
Network Inference.
The Network Inference project gave rise to the Network
Map feature of Windows Vista. Underlying the Network Map feature
is the LLTD
protocol which is licensed by many companies as part of the Windows
Rally program. (Some details on the network map are here).
Richard obtained his B.A. in Computer Science from the University of Cambridge in 1990 and
his Ph.D. addressing issues in operating systems and networking
interaction in 1995. After a further three years at the University of Cambridge Computer
Laboratory as a research associate and research fellow he moved in
1997 to a lectureship at the
University of Glasgow Department of Computing Science. He returned
to Cambridge in January 2000, to join the Microsoft Research
laboratory, initially as a Researcher. He changed role to Research
Software Development Engineer in 2006.
