PhD Student at the Distributed Systems Group of the Faculty of Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science (EEMCS/EWI), Delft University of Technology.

My research interests are in the areas of job scheduling and autoscaling of resources in large computing systems like clusters, multiclusters and clouds.

Currently, I am working on the group of problems related to the scheduling of workloads of complex scientific jobs (workflows), where each job is represented in the form of a directed acyclic graph (DAG). I am trying to find the appropriate scheduling policies and solve the related algorithmic problems to improve the execution speed of each separate job in a workload, preferably achieve the fair share of computing resources among the jobs, and keep the high level of system utilization.
