He drives strategic business planning, including world-wide partner coverage and deep integration with Microsoft services. Khalidi was a member of the team that conceived and built the initial version of Microsoft Azure (code named Red Dog) and has served in several engineering, product management, and architectural roles in Azure. Prior to joining Microsoft, Khalidi spent 14 years at Sun Microsystems, where he was a distinguished engineer. At Sun, he held several R&D, architecture, and management positions in enterprise software, including CTO and chief architect of Solaris, chief architect of Sun’s N1 utility computing platform, chief architect and director of the Sun Cluster product line, and as a principal architect of the Solaris MC and the Spring advanced development projects. Khalidi also served as a member of Sun’s Technical Advisory Council. Khalidi earned his bachelor’s degree in computer science from West Virginia University, where he graduated summa cum laude. He earned his M.S. and Ph.D. in information and computer science from Georgia Tech, with a minor in performance evaluation and statistics. Khalidi is a member of the Georgia Tech Advisory Board, as well as QCRI’s Scientific Advisory Committee. He holds over 50 patents in distributed systems, networking, and computer hardware.Runtime: 62:40 minutesCloud computing has ushered in a new class of hyper-scale systems, characterized by large-scale distributed systems, global connectivity, and ubiquitous computing models that span the spectrum from centralized data centers to the edge. Powering these hyper-scales are global networks that connect end-users through various other networks and devices to the cloud. In this talk, we describe our journey in building the network of one of the biggest cloud systems, Microsoft Azure. This network is built out of 130K+ miles of terrestrial and subsea cables, processes an average of 30 billion packets/second, and interconnects with more than 20K peering points around the globe. We describe many of the technological and engineering building blocks that enable us to build and reliably operate this network, including innovations in fiber optics, software-defined networking, network design, switch software and global-scale monitoring, and simulation software

Legion — Programming Heterogeneous, Distributed Parallel Machines
No full textPresented on January 31, 2018 at 1:30 p.m. in the Klaus Advanced Computing Building Auditorium, Georgia Tech.Alex Aiken is a professor and the current Chair of Computer Science at Stanford. Alex received his bachelor's degree in computer science and music from Bowling Green State University in 1983 and his Ph.D. from Cornell University in 1988. Alex was a research staff member at the IBM Almaden Research Center (1988-1993) and a professor in the EECS department at UC Berkeley (1993-2003) before joining the Stanford faculty in 2003. His research interest is in areas related to programming languages. He is a fellow of the ACM and a recipient of Phi Beta Kappa’s Teaching Award.Runtime: 60:01 minutesProgrammers tend to think of parallel programming as a problem of dividing up computation, but often the most difficult part is the placement and movement of data. As machines become more complex and hierarchical, describing what to do with the data is increasingly a fist-class programming concern. Legion is a programming model and runtime system for describing hierarchical organizations of both data and computation at an abstract level. A separate mapping interface allows programmers to control how data and
computation are placed onto the actual memories and processors of a specific machine. This talk will
present the design of Legion, the novel issues that arise in both the design and implementation, and
experience with applications

ITS Analyzers - Meta-Analysis Research on the Effectiveness of Intelligent Tutoring System (ITS) Products
No full textComputer Science - CS6460-Fall 2016 final project.Evaluation of intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) is an important area of research in current educational practices. There are many work has been done to analyse the effectiveness of various ITS products to aid student education. We focused on top 3 ITS products to compare and analyse individual ITS product outcome and its effectiveness. Additionally, we explored the current problems that may exist with measuring the effectiveness of ITS by conducting research study on different methods that are currently used

Proceedings of the 4th Student-STAFF Research Conference 2020 School of Computer Science and Engineering SSRC2020
Full text linkThis volume contains the proceedings of the 4th Student-STAFF Research Conference of the School of Computer Science and Engineering (SSRC2020). This is a traditional, annual forum which brings together, for an one-day intensive programme, established and young researchers from different areas
of research, doctoral researchers, postgraduate and undergraduate alumni, and covers both traditional and emerging topics, disseminates achieved results or work in progress. During informal discussions at conference sessions, the attendees share their research findings with an open audience of academics, doctoral, postgraduate and undergraduate students. The SSRCS2020 was held on-line. The specifics of this year's conference was the participation of alumni from the Informatics Institute of Technology (IIT Sri Lanka) and Westminster International University in Tashkent (WIUT, Uzbekistan). The event met great interest - it had more than 200 on-line participants, with one session accommodating the audience of 156! The presenters whether they are established researchers or just at the start of their career, not only share their work but also gain invaluable feedback during the conference sessions.
Twenty one abstracts of the Proceedings contributed by the speakers at the SSRC2020 are assembled in order of their presentation at the conference. The abstracts cover a wide spectre of topics including the development of on-line knowledge and learning repositories, data analysis, applications of machine learning in fraud detection, bankruptcy prediction, patients mortality, image synthesis, graph DB, image analysis for medical diagnostics, mobile app developments, user experience design, wide area networking, adaptive agent algorithms, plagiarism detection, process mining techniques for behavioural patterns, data mining for reablement, Cloud Computing, Networking and linguistic profiling
