Welcome! I'm Yan Tong, a PhD student at the University of California, Santa Cruz, advised by Professor Lindsey Kuper in the LSD lab. I'm doing research on Distributed Systems and Programming Language .
Right now, I'm doing research on causality, also known as causal order, which is a crucial safety property in distributed systems. Specifically, I'm working on tweaking the buffer protocol to optimize message delivery and reduce unnecessary message delays, so the time between a message sending and the message delivery will be shortened.
I had an internship at Reality Labs at Meta during the summer of 2022, where I worked on an automated framework for their XR data systems.
