Shuhao Zhang

Biography

Shuhao Zhang is an Assistant Professor at the Singapore University of Technology and Design. Previously, he was a postdoctoral researcher at Technische Universität Berlin under Prof. Volker Markl. He earned his PhD and BEng from the National University of Singapore and Nanyang Technological University, respectively. His research focuses on designing database systems and big data processing frameworks for modern hardware (NUMA multicore, GPU, mobile CPUs) with a special interest in stream processing systems. His work has been published in top conferences/journals including SIGMOD, VLDB, ICDE, SC, USENIX ATC, IEEE TPDS, and IEEE TKDE. He has open-sourced most of his stream processing and database systems, including BriskStream (ICDE’17, SIGMOD’19), TStream/MorphStream (ICDE’20, SIGMOD’23), and OmniDB/FineStream (VLDB’13, ATC’20, TPDS’21).
