Sankaran Sivathanu, PhD |
PHD in COMPUTER SCIENCE My research interests broadly lie in the filed of high performance distributed system, storage systems and cloud computing. My dissertation research has been focused on system performance from the perspective of reliability, resource utilization, and quality of service, and has resulted in important architectural design and system implementation work in multi-tiered storage system architecture, reliable distributed system and cloud computing. Scaling up or scaling out system to achieve higher performance is a common theme in my research. ·

2007, IBM T.J. Watson Research Center, Designed and implemented a RFID based
spatiotemporal situation detection system for mobile asset management which
can track the locations of moving objects and can be applied into healthcare
management or inventory management. Research intern in Summer
2008, IBM Almaden Research Center, Almaden, CA, USA Working on a cloud computing project on
comparing performance of HDFS (Hadoop Distributed File
System) and GPFS (General Parallel File System) in supporting map-reduce
workloads. Through designing experiments running map reduce
applications on these two different file systems, we compare their performance
differences and further investigate the improvements to support the
map reduce applications more efficiently for GPFS. The project team is of the
