About
Who I am
What I am
I currently serve as a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Edinburgh. I obtained my PhD in Computer Science from the University of Edinburgh, under the guidance of Prof. Boris Grot. Prior to this, I achieved my M.Sc. in Software Engineering from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) at Shiraz University, and my B.Sc. in Software Engineering from the same university.
What I do
My current research is centered around distributed systems, replication protocols, and performance predictability in datacenter networks. In the past, I contributed to compelling projects involving RISC-V on FPGA and systems in the context of high-performance computing. For more details, please refer to my brief CV here.
During my free time, I indulge in my hobbies, which include photography, playing chess, reading manga, and watching anime!
