Uri J. Braun

I am a fourth year PhD candidate in Computer Science. My advisor is Professor Margo Seltzer.

Before coming to Harvard I spent four years at EMC in the core Enginuity team (known internally as Microcode). Enginuity is the operating system that runs the Symmetrix system.

I received my B.S. in Computer Science at WPI.

Research

Interests
I am most interested in distributed systems -- getting computers to play nice together. I am even more interested in making sure they continue to play nice even when life is not perfect.

Activities
As a member of the Syrah Research Group I am working on PASS. We are interested in capturing and managing the lineage of data.
