Lan Bai

I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of Michigan in 2011. My dissertation "Simplifying Design of Wireless Sensor Networks with Programming Languages, Compilers, and Synthesis" can be found here. I was very fortunate to have Prof. Robert Dick as my advisor. My research area was embedded system design and synthesis. I received my M.S. degree from Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science of Northwestern University in 2008. I received my B.S. degree from Department of Electronic Science and Technology of University of Science and Technology of China in 2005. I started working at EMC in 2011. I am currently working on deduplication filesystem for backup storage. Here is my resume.
