Fun throwback seeing Artem's prize-winning SOSP'23 Student Research Competition presentation — the system is now called "Sesame" and a full paper on this work will appear at SOSP'24!
Tons of work happened since Artem's presentation, but the core ideas behind Sesame are the same.
Please welcome Akshay Narayan, joining us this fall as assistant professor! A postdoctoral researcher at @UCBerkeley and the @ICSIatBerkeley, his work focuses on ways to make specialization for network environments accessible: cs.brown.edu/news/2024/08/05…
Congratulations to @ms705 and Ritambhara Singh for receiving named professorships! As of 7/1, Malte will be the Eliot Horowitz ‘03 Assistant Professor in Computer Science and Ritambhara will be the John E. Savage Assistant Professor in Computer Science: cs.brown.edu/news/2024/05/24…
Congratulations to our three @BrownCSDept winners of @amazon Research Awards! In the Automated Reasoning category, @ShriramKMurthi and @ms705 have been funded for "Paralegal: Scalable Tooling to Find Privacy Bugs in Application Code". (1 of 2)
Guess who's about to become Rhode Island's #1 Rustacean and #2 document engineer (behind Andy van Dam, ofc). Catch me as an assistant prof at Brown CS in 2025!
The @CRAtweets recognizes students who show phenomenal research potential with their Outstanding Undergraduate Researcher Award, and four @BrownCSDept students have just been honored: @meganfrisella, Anh Truong, Qiuhong Anna Wei, and Carolyn Zech: go.brown.edu/CRAUndergraduat…
@BrownCSDept student @artemagvanian and alum Hannah Gross (now a doctoral student at @MIT) have won first and second place prizes for their work at @sospconf's Student Research Competition: go.brown.edu/SOSPStudentHono…

It’s official — I’m joining @BrownCSDept as an Assistant Professor this summer!
If you know of any folks excited about research, esp. on systems used widely, let me/them know!
@nikosvasilakis, who joins @BrownCSDept as Assistant Professor this fall, says that the desire to create the greatest positive impact for as many people as possible has always informed his research, teaching, and his broader efforts. Read a full interview: bit.ly/3QbQlUp
Today I saw in the wild in Rust code a really awesome pattern that was previously hidden inside Racket. Livia Zhu and Sreshtaa Rajesh were presenting their work in @ms705 grad seminar on privacy-conscious systems. They wanted to create (roughly) policy-enforced objects. 1/n
Undergrads interested in computing systems research—check out @BrownCSDept's "Diversity in Computer Systems Research" funded mentoring program! If you're eligible (see FAQ), please apply! (CC @ms705)
