Danesh Kohina

I am a M.S. student in Computer Science at Boston University, advised by Prof. John Liagouris. My research interests are in distributed systems, particularly problems involving coordination, communication, concurrency, and parallelism. At CASP, I have worked on consensus protocols and fault tolerant systems, including OmniPaxos and publish/subscribe systems, and I am currently working on disaggregated streaming systems. I am also involved in research on microservice fusion at Brown University.

More broadly, I am interested in applying distributed systems research to scalable and efficient infrastructure for AI systems. Before coming to BU, I completed my undergraduate degree at the University of Toronto in the Computer Science Specialist program, with a focus in Computer Systems.
