Research

Raju Rangaswami directs the Systems Research Laboratory (SyLab) at Florida International University. Research at SyLab focuses on the building next-generation software systems drawing from the areas of operating systems, distributed systems, memory and storage systems, computer security, and real-time systems. We build systems-level software, libraries, and software toolchains for applications that span web, cloud, and mobile. Here is a list of students who are current/former members of the lab.
