        Laboratory for Distributed Information Systems

 

PI: Prof. Anxiao (Andrew) Jiang

Department of Computer Science
Texas A&M University


Our lab pursues research on the theory and applications of distributed information systems. We currently focus on data storage in memories, especially flash memories.

Recent awards:

NSF (National Science Foundation) CAREER Award, 2008

NSF IHCS (Integrative, Hybrid and Complex Systems) Research Project, "Collaborative Research: BRAM: Balanced Rank Modulation for data storage in next generation flash memories,", 2008-2011.
