Tareq Mahmood
Hi, Tareq here. I am a first-year PhD student
in the Department of Computer Sciences
at the University of Wisconsin - Madison.
I am fortunate to be advised by Professor Shivaram Venkataraman.
My research interests lie at the intersection of ML and systems.
My current research focuses on building efficient distributed ML systems for large-scale GPU clusters.
