Zirui Liu

I am a fourth-year PhD student in School of Computer Science at Peking University, advised by Prof. Bin Cui and Prof. Tong Yang.

My research interest includes data strucutres and algorithms (probabilistic data strucutes, hash tables, streaming algorithms), as well as their applications in various distributed systems (networked systems, machine learning systems, storage systems).

I received my B.S. degree in Computer Science from Yuanpei College , Peking University in 2021. I have been working as a research intern at Datacom Forwarding Algorithm Lab of Huawei, Beijing, since Oct. 2021.

My name written in Chinese is 刘子瑞 (Tel/WeChat: (+86) 18810703566).
