亚利桑那州立大学CS Ph.D positions in database/machine learning systems

Prof. Jia Zou at Computer Science and Engineering in Arizona State University (ASU) is looking for Ph.D students to join her research group starting in Spring/Fall 2020.  Students will have opportunities to work closely with Prof. Jia Zou in designing and building novel distributed systems that provide both high performance and high productivity to  the development and deployment of the most cutting-edge applications, such as machine learning, interactive analytics, block chain, internet of things.  Students will be offered full financial support and funding for traveling to conferences.

Prof. Jia Zou entered the distributed systems research ten years ago as a researcher in IBM Research. Through her extensive experience in industry and academia, she has learnt how to identify and pursue high value research problems, and how to lead a team to attack these problems with creative design,  iterative development,  solid experiments, and  effective team communication and management skills.

In recent years, Prof. Jia Zou has a focus on distributed systems for Big Data management and machine learning. Her recent publications include: two full papers published in VLDB 2019 with one awarded the Best Paper Honorable Mention Award;  and three full papers published in SIGMOD 2018, VLDB 2015, VLDB 2014 respectively; among other papers published in ICDM, ICDCS, ICPP, GLOBECOMM, ICEBE.  Her research works have also been granted ten U.S. patents.

Arizona State University ranks 1st Most Innovative University in USNEWS and ranks 43 in Computer Science in USNEWS (https://www.usnews.com/best-graduate-schools/top-science-schools/computer-science-rankings).  It is located in the energetic Tempe city,  which is 20 minutes' drive to Phoenix and international airport, two hours' drive to Sedona, four hours' drive to Las Vegas or Grand Canyon National Park, five hours' drive  to  Los Angeles or San Diego.  Tempe is in the middle of one of the United State’s most sprawling metropolitan areas, Phoenix, Arizona. It has its fair share of hip urban things like nice coffee shops, delicious craft beer, and excellent local, affordable dining. It is also one of the safest place to live, without natural disasters like earthquake, hurricanes, and tornados.

To apply, please send your CV to jia.zou@asu.edu, listing your complete educational/working experiences, research interests, details of project experiences and coding skills, list of publications and awards. If you haven't submitted your application to the Ph.D programs in Computer Science and Engineering, Arizona State University yet, you also need to do this here: https://webapp4.asu.edu/programs/t5/majorinfo/ASU00/ESCOMSCPHD/graduate/false#deadlines

数据库也做分布式吗？ 是mapreduce吗？

分布式数据库，分布式存储系统，以及分布式机器学习系统.
我们在OLAP方面的研究包括batch也就是mapreduce的并行方式，也研究一些新的并行方式。
我的主页是：https://sites.google.com/view/jiazou-web/home， 您可以看到我们的论文。

在csranking并找不到prof. zou的信息呢, 莫非是新的faculty?

哈，我能在CS Ranking ASU的默认页面上（不勾选非默认会议）找到的自己的记录。您看的是Arizona State University吗？

目前还没有暑研的计划。我们在数据库领域做分布式系统研究的，比较注重长期性。如果能有相关且独立的小课题，今后可以考虑。
