Daehyeok Kim

My research interests lie in the intersection of systems and networking with a current focus on making data centers faster and more efficient by designing novel network primitives with advanced networking hardware devices and features such as programmable switches/NICs and RDMA.

I am fortunate to be co-advised by Srinivasan Seshan and Vyas Sekar. Prior to CMU, I worked at KAIST for three years as a research scientist. Before then, I received a BS and MS degree in Computer Science and Engineering from POSTECH.

I am a recipient of the 2019 Microsoft Research PhD Fellowship.
