Yuanyuan Zhou

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yuanyuan Zhou , YY Zhou (* 1971 ), is a Chinese-US-American computer scientist and professor at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD).

Zhou received her bachelor's degree from Peking University in 1992 and her PhD from Princeton University with Kai Li in 2001 (Memory Management for Networked Servers). She spent two years at the NEC Research Institute at Princeton before starting her first company. In 2002 she became an assistant professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and has been a professor at UCSD since 2009. She is Qualcomm Professor of Mobile Computer Systems there.

She was involved in several startups, in 2000 at Emphora in Princeton (in the field of data storage) and in 2007 Pattern Insight (which was sold to VmWare in 2012). There she commercialized her software for the automated search and elimination of computer bugs in large software projects. In 2012 she founded Whova for event management software.

In 2015 he received the Mark Weiser Award . She is a Fellow of the Association for Computing Machinery (2013) ( for contributions to software reliability and quality ) and IEEE (2014) for contributions to Scalable Algorithms and Tools for Computing Reliability . In 2007 she was a Sloan Fellow and in 2004 she received a Career Award from the NSF.
