Nae Young Song (Ph.D.)


Hi All, this is Nae Young Song.

I'm a software engineer at Zoom Video Communication inc. I received my Ph.D degree in Computer Science & Engineering from Seoul National University in 2018. My research areas consist of everything about the storage systems, including filesystems, non-volatile memories and virtual memory subsystems. Please take the time to read this page, and if you want to discuss something with me, please don't hesitate to contact me. :)

Research Area

I've been trying to reduce the software overhead between storage systems and applications, which may be caused when we use high-performance storage devices, to deliver the real performance of storage to applications. The "software" includes every layer between storage and applications. Research Area Keywords are like these :

  • Filesystem or device driver for New emerging storage devices such as non-volatile memories

  • Memory management such as paging mechanism,

  • Distributed computing systems

  • Skills : (Expert) C, Linux Kernel, C++ (Intermediate) Java, Python, Shell script

Education

  • Ph.D in Computer Science & Engineering : Seoul National University in 2018.08.

      • Ph.D Thesis "Efficient Data Management Schemes for High-Performance Storage Devices."

  • M.S in Computer Science & Engineering : Seoul National University in 2012.08.

  • B.S in Computer Science : Sookmyung Women's Univeristy in 2010.02.

Experiences

  • Software Engineer in Zoom VideoCommunication inc., Aug. 2021 ~ current

  • Post-doc Researcher in Computer Science & Engineering : University of Minnesota, Jul. 2019. ~ Jul.2021

  • Graduate student : Seoul National University, Sep.2010 ~ Aug.2018.

    • Project named "Study on system software technologies for Exa-scale high performance computing systems" @ Ministry of science, ICT and Future planning (South Korea), Nov. 2015 ~ Aug. 2018

    • Project named "Implementataion of PCM-based storage system that supports 200,000 IOPS for Peta-scale computing" @ Ministry of Knowledge Economy (South Korea), May. 2011 ~ Oct. 2012
