Distributed systems underpin modern computing environments—from cloud platforms and edge networks to multi-agent grids and software-defined infrastructures. They comprise collections of autonomous ...

Distributed computing unites autonomous processors over a network to solve tasks that exceed the capacity of any single machine. Systems software in this domain spans operating systems, middleware, ...

Quantum computing has long held the promise of solving problems far beyond the reach of classical computers, but a major bottleneck remains – scalability ...

One of the most difficult problems with quantum computing relates to increasing the size of the quantum computer. Researchers globally are seeking to solve this "challenge of scale." To bring quantum ...

This core research area addresses the fundamental study of computing systems across the whole stack, from devices to microelectronics to computer architecture. Embedding of novel computing paradigms, ...

Distributed computing erupted onto the scene in 1999 with the release of SETI@home, a nifty program and screensaver (back when people still used those) that sifted through radio telescope signals for ...

The sheer volume of ‘Big Data’ produced today by various sectors is beginning to overwhelm even the extremely efficient computational techniques developed to sift through all that information. But a ...

The Parallel & Distributed Computing Lab (PDCL) conducts research at the intersection of high performance computing and big data processing. Our group works in the broad area of Parallel & Distributed ...

A distributed system is comprised of multiple computing devices interconnected with one another via a loosely-connected network. Almost all computing systems and applications today are distributed in ...
