===== About myself =====

I work on dataflows, databases and Rust at [[https://materialize.com|Materialize]].

I completed my PhD in [[http://www.inf.ethz.ch/personal/troscoe/|Timothy Roscoe]]'s group as part of the [[http://systems.ethz.ch/|Systems Group]] at ETH Zurich. In my PhD, I created a tool to perform bottleneck analysis for distributed streaming dataflow applications, a policy to determine optimal parallelism levels and mechanism to apply dataflow reconfigurations with latency constraints.

I graduated from my PhD program in April, 2019. From June 2019 until May 2021, I worked at Google Zurich.

See my [[moritz_cv|Curriculum Vitæ]] for more information.

===== Projects =====

  * **[[http://strymon.systems.ethz.ch/|Strymon]]** is a platform to run data center operations and monitoring. I am working on performance analysis of distributed dataflow applications and scaling mechanisms.

  * **[[http://www.barrelfish.org/|Barrelfish]]** is a research operating system to explore multi- and many-core architectures using novel approaches from distributed systems. My research was in the field of scaling-out Barrelfish across many physical machines using low-latency interconnects.

===== Personal projects =====

  * **[[https://github.com/antiguru/columnar-rs|columnar-rs]]** is a Rust library to transparently convert row-based memory layouts into a columnar variant. This can yield a significant performance improvement due to better cache utilization and dense data.

See my [[https://github.com/antiguru/|Github profile]] for more projects.
