#Cryptography is key to #privacy-preserving applications, but certain applications are difficult to realize. Hear from Sam Kumar as he walks through his research and explains the tools you need to rethink system design. Register here: bit.ly/3ON8U0J

#ICYMI: “How can we design systems to use cryptography efficiently and manage overheads?” Sam Kumar Kumar unpacked how to rethink cryptography in the overall system in our interactive #TechTalk. Thank you, Sam, for this thought-provoking session & George Nychis for moderating it.

I arrived in Carlsbad earlier today. I’m excited for OSDI starting tomorrow! #osdi22

LIVE: The IRTF Open session at 19:00-21:00 UTC on 25 July 2022 during #IETF114 will be streamed live, with #ANRP talks by Tushar Swamy on “Taurus: A Data Plane Architecture for Per-Packet ML” & Sam Kumar on “Performant TCP for Low-Power Wireless Networks” ietf.org/live/ietf114-i…

This year's RIOT Summit will take place in #Hamburg @inf_haw_hh and virtual. Do you want to present something? Submit docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI… and join our speakers list summit.riot-os.org/2022/#speakers #IoT #openSource #operatingSystem

I just presented my research on TCP over LoWPANs at #RIOTSummit2022. Thanks RIOT for the opportunity to present!

Read more about how Skyplane works at: medium.com/@paras_jain/sk… This project has been a year long effort by Sarah Wooders 👾, Sam Kumar, Shishir Patil, Joey Gonzalez, Ion Stoica and a wonderful team of undergrads at UC Berkeley UC Berkeley RISE Lab AMPLab. 4/

Our paper on Skyplane has been accepted to NSDI 2023! We show how to use network overlays to optimize inter-region bulk data transfer in the cloud. Our paper is now available on arXiv: arxiv.org/abs/2210.07259 Our research artifact, Skyplane, is open source (see below).

Congratulations to our new doctors in SkyLab @ UC Berkeley! You make us proud! With #ionstoica Zongheng Yang Paras Jain Joey Gonzalez Sam Kumar Joey Gonzalez

I'm excited to be joining UCLA Computer Science (UCLA CS Department) as a tenure-track assistant professor in Fall 2024!

In the meantime, I am joining the Allen School at the University of Washington (Allen School) as a postdoc in the FOCI Center, supervised by Arvind Krishnamurthy (Arvind Krishnamurthy) and Ratul Mahajan (Ratul Mahajan)!

I've wrapped up my postdoc and just moved down to Los Angeles. I'm super excited to start at UCLA CS (UCLA CS Department)! Today is my first day working in person at the UCLA campus.

This was a fun project! Developing the reading list as senior grad students, we got to re-read classic systems papers with a fresh perspective. And I'm glad that junior grad students at UC Berkeley EECS now have a more up-to-date reading list introducing them to systems research.

📢 UCLA Computer Science is hiring! Open to all CS areas! - Multiple Tenure-track Assistant Professor Positions: recruit.apo.ucla.edu/JPF09799 - Open Rank Teaching Professor Position: recruit.apo.ucla.edu/JPF09800 (We hired 11 Assistant Professors in the past two years ...)

I'm in Salt Lake City this week for CCS 2024 (ACM CCS 2024). I'm excited to meet with other researchers and discuss computer security!

It’s an honor to have been recognized as a Runner-Up for the ⁦Association for Computing Machinery⁩ SIGSAC Doctoral Dissertation Award at CCS 2024 (⁦ACM CCS 2024⁩)! I’d like to thank my nominator and letter writers for this award, and my advisors, mentors, and collaborators during my PhD.

I'm on a plane, and my flight is delayed for over 2 hours. Why? First, they had to replace a seat belt. But their computer didn't recognize the new part number, so they have to replace the entire seat before the plane is allowed to move. The computer made things less efficient...

Excited to share that our paper, “High-Level Programming for Application Networks,” has been accepted to #NSDI '25! This marks the first step in realizing our vision for Application Defined Networks (ADN). More details in the thread!
