Biography
Chen is a postdoctoral researcher with the System Research Group, Department of Computer Science and Technology, University of Cambridge. In SRG, Chen works on the EDGELESS project with Professor Richard Mortier, exploring the opportunities for efficient virtualization in small edge devices for serverless computing. Chen is also a Senior Member at St Edmunds College.
Prior to that, Chen received his PhD in Computer Science from Loughborough Univeristy (LU), with Prof. Posco Tso. Chen received his BEng from Xidian University, Xi’an, China.
His research interests are broadly in areas of Serverless Computing, Cloud/Edge Computing, Network Resource Orchestration, In-network Computing, Distributed System and IoTs. His latest work focuses on resource orchestration in serverless edge computing, aiming to optimize the overall performance for the system, including latency, energy consumption and system cost. Chen has extensive experience collaborating with industries such as Siemens, Infineon, EMS-UK, National Physical Lab and many others. Chen’s research is mostly funded by UKRI and EU Horizon.
Also, Chen is actively serving as a TPC member and reviewer for many conferences and journals such as ICDCS 2024, IFIP NPC 2024, IEEE MSN 2023, IEEE TSC, Computer Networks, JNCA and etc.
Chen also holds an Associate Fellowship of Higher Education Academy.
