Hi! My name is Satya. That's short for "Satyanarayanan". I'm a faculty member in the School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University.
As
an experimental computer scientist, I design, implement,
and evaluate systems. My motto is "Working Code Trumps All Hype."
My multi-decade research career has focused on the challenges of
performance, scalability, availability and trust in information systems
that reach from the cloud to the mobile edge of the
Internet. Here's a short bio and contact information. If you are visiting me and
need maps, here is an online map of the Carnegie
Mellon campus and a pdf version. My office is in the Gates Hillman Center (GHC 9123).
Here are my publications: invited
or refereed and other documents.
