Introduction

Hello! I am Yiming Sun, currently a Computer Science Ph.D. student at Indiana University.

I am working in the Distributed Data Everywhere (DDE) lab which is directed by Dr. Beth Plale. In our lab, our projects and research areas mainly focus on large-scale data management and databases, data streams, distributed systems, and middleware architectures. I have very strong interest in these areas and will focus my research in data search and discovery. These days I am working on the LEAD (Linked Environments for Atmoshperic Discovery) project, which involves many institutes.

Please feel free to drop me a note. My email is yimsun[at]cs.indiana.edu.
