I'm looking to recruit multiple PhD students in the upcoming admissions cycle. If you have any strong undergrad or MS students working with you who are interested in systems research, please encourage them to apply to USC and reach out to me.
We are working towards using this system to fix tons of broken citations on Wikipedia. Excited about translating our research into real-world impact!
The Internet is littered with millions of dead links. Now, a team led by Harsha Madhyastha has found a fix for many of them 💡
The system, called FABLE, was presented at the 2023 ACM Internet Measurement Conference 👏

This is work that my student Anish (@nyayachavadi) presented at the Internet Measurement Conference last month. Anish did this work for his senior year Honors Thesis, and he is currently applying to PhD programs.
"Characterizing 'Permanently Dead' Links on Wikipedia" Broken external references on Wikipedia which lack archived copies are marked as “permanently dead". But, many previously dysfunctional seem to work fine today.

As the US considers turning away the best and brightest from China, an example from the past of the potential impact
Do you know the story of the co-founder of JPL? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qian_X…
What a remarkable story! ... A reminder of all the talent that goes untapped due to the lack of opportunity and appropriate guidance.
Tani Adewumi fled Nigeria at age 6. He lived in a homeless shelter at age 7. He became a chess champion in the U.S. at age 8. The Adewumis welcomed me into their lives wholeheartedly via zoom. Here is their wonderful story

Systems researchers are at #nsdi20 this week to present 5 accepted papers!
The teams designed faster methods for networked computing, new approaches to geo-distributed storage, & ways to prevent bugs in large services as they undergo updates.

I serve on program committees hoping to read papers that make me wish I had written them. But, it is often the case that papers I review make me wish the authors had devoted their time and energy on a more worthy problem.
Imma let you finish ... but, we built iPlane back in 2006! web.eecs.umich.edu/~harshavm…
This is an under-appreciated benefit of academia IMO. You have much more control over how busy you are, and so, have more time to think.
Congrats to my student @paivaspol who was awarded the IRTF's Applied Networking Research Prize for our SIGCOMM'17 paper (web.eecs.umich.edu/~harshavm…) on speeding up the mobile web! He'll be presenting our work at one of the IETF meetings this year.
Text is typically preferable over video for faster consumption of ideas, but authors often abuse reader's attention with verbosity. teapaw.org/arishapiro/status/9039…

Our work on speeding up the mobile web with Vroom, which we presented at SIGCOMM last week, garners some press coverage. teapaw.org/engadget/status/901921…
The answer is likely service-specific, but wondering if others have any experience in working around lack of cellular connectivity.
Probably many computer vision challenges involved here, but this application also seems quite hard in terms of the need for low latency. teapaw.org/techreview/status/8380…
