Systems Research

The Colorado Computer Systems Group is actively pursuing a number of research areas in both hardware and software systems. Some of our strengths, which span across the boundaries of computer science and computer engineering, are listed below:

Networking: Douglas Sicker, Dirk Grunwald, Shivakant Mishra, and Richard Han
Architecture: Dirk Grunwald, Manish Vachhrajani, Jeremy Siek, and Li Shang
Programming Languages: Amer Diwan, Jeremy Siek, and Manish Vachharajani
Operating Systems and Parallel / Distributed Computing: Shivakant Mishra, Dirk Grunwald, Richard Han, Gary Nutt, and Manish Vachharajani
Ubiquitous Computing, Sensor Networks, and Informatics: Richard Han, John Bennett, and Shivakant Mishra

Facilities

The "ESL" compute cluster is operated by Dr. Grunwald. Information on the facilities can be found at FacilitieESL
The "SDR" compute cluster is a compute cluster used for simulation and data analysis for various projects centered around software defined radio. This cluster includes a 16-core server (sdr.cs.colorado.edu) and a cluster of 16 blades, each with 8 cores and 16GB of ram. SDRCluster describes that system.
