A note to graduate applicants: Thank you for your interest in our graduate program. I cannot personally make decisions on admissions, and I am not on the committee that does so. Due to the large volume of emails I receive, I may not reply to your inquiries (my pre-apologies). Good luck with your applications!

Welcome to Dongyan Xu's home page. I am an Associate Professor (Professor starting 2013-14 AY) of Computer Science at Purdue University. I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, under the direction of Professor Klara Nahrstedt. I am a recipient of four Seed for Success Awards from Purdue University, a CAREER Award from NSF, the Best Paper Award from RAID'08, and a Paper of Distinction honor from SOCC'11. I am a Purdue University Faculty Scholar and a CERIAS Fellow.

The three components of my professional life:

Research:

• Current interests: Virtualization technology and its application to cyber security, cloud computing, and cyberinfrastructure (CI) computing.
• Group: Lab FRIENDS (Lab For Research In Emerging Network & Distributed Systems)
• Affiliation: CERIAS, CWSA, Cyber Center.
• Sponsors (past and present): AFOSR, AFRL, CERDEC, DARPA, IARPA, NSF, ONR, DOCOMO USA Labs, Microsoft Research, Northrop Grumman Cybersecurity Research Consortium, Southwest Research Institute, Purdue Research Foundation.
