Y. Charlie Hu's research interests are in Distributed Systems, Operating Systems, Internet and Wireless Networking, and High Performance Computing. He is currently investigating program-counter-based techniques for the I/O management in operating systems, Internet routing, routing security, network measurement, peer-to-peer overlay networking infrastructures, the synergy between peer-to-peer and grid computing, and the synergy between peer-to-peer and mobile ad hoc networking. He has published over 100 papers in these areas, including publications in ACM Transactions on Computer Systems, ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software, IEEE Transactions on Computers, IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems, Journal of Parallel and Distributed Computing, IEEE JSAC, USENIX OSDI, USENIX HotOS, ACM Sigmetrics, ACM/USENIX IMC, IEEE INFOCOM, IEEE ICDCS, IEEE HPCA, and IEEE/ACM SC Conferences. He received the National Science Foundation CAREER award in 2003, and the Honda Initiation Grant Award in 2002. He served as a TPC Vice Chair for ICDCS 2007 and ICPP 2004 and a co-founder and TPC co-chair for the International Workshop on Mobile Peer-to-Peer Computing. Prof. Hu is a senior member of ACM and IEEE, and a member of USENIX.
