About Me

My name is Chenghao Lyu. I am a fifth-year Ph.D. student in the College of Information and Computer Sciences at University of Massachusetts, Amherst, and I am part of the DREAM Lab. I am advised by Prof. Yanlei Diao, and co-advised by Prof. Prashant Shenoy. I am currently visiting the CEDAR project-team of Inria and LIX, at Ecole Polytechnique(X). Before joining UMass Amherst, I got my BS in EE and MS in CS from Fudan University, where I was advised by Prof. X. Sean Wang.

My research interests lie in big data analytics systems, with a focus on the job performance modeling and tuning to optimize multiple system goals (e.g., the total running time and money cost).
