Simon Schubert Operating Systems Laboratory Dipl.-Ing. office(s): BC124 phone(s): [+41 21 69] 36668 MISSION I am researching energy consumption of server systems as a function of the software executed. In this context I am interested in paving the way to low-energy server systems by identifying and optimizing software components that are responsible for high energy consumption. As a first step towards this goal, I am building a software energy profiler which allows developers (and administrators) to understand which parts of their system consume most energy. I am also working on the Dragonfly BSD Operating System, where I am specifically interested in optimizing storage performance and implementing new ways of maintaining reliable storage. BIOGRAPHY I received a Dipl.-Ing. degree in Electrical Engineering in 2006 from the Technische Universität München (TUM), Germany. Since the academic year 2007/2008 I am a PhD student in the Operating Systems Laboratory (LABOS) at EPFL. MAIN PUBLICATIONS A. Menon, S. Schubert, and W. Zwaenepoel.
