The Computing Systems Laboratory at the North Carolina State University comprises a group of researchers conducting research across all the major layers of modern computing systems, ranging from compilers and programming systems, to real-time/embedded systems, operating systems and runtimes, high-performance and cloud computing, computer architecture and storage. The lab focuses on innovations that can effectively remove barriers for sustained improvements of high performance extreme-scale computing, data-intensive computing, software reliability, real-time responsiveness, energy efficiency and other critical aspects of computing.
