☕️About Me
I am a ZJU 100 Young Professor (平台“百人计划”研究员) in the School of Software Technology, Zhejiang University (ZJU). I obtained my PhD from the College of Computer Science and Technology at ZJU in June 2025, supervised by Prof. Zeke Wang.
Interests
- Computer Architecture
- Networked Systems
- FPGAs
- SmartNICs
- Processing In Memory
Education
PhD
Zhejiang University 2020-2025
BSc
Zhejiang University 2016-2020
📚 My Research
My research interests is to build advanced computing systems for both traditional workloads (e.g., Cloud Infrastructure and LLMs) and emerging workloads (e.g., Quantum Computer).
I am actively looking for students/engineers. If you are interested, feel free to email me at carlzhang4@zju.edu.cn. (欢迎对网络、系统、硬件有基础或感兴趣的同学联系我，期待一起进步QAQ)
