Ruichuan Chen

I am a researcher at Bell Labs in Stuttgart, Germany. Previously, I was a postdoctoral researcher working with Paul Francis at the Max Planck Institute for Software Systems (MPI-SWS). I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Peking University.

My research interests span the broad areas of networking and distributed systems. In particular, my current research centers around cloud computing, big data analytics, and machine learning systems.

Openings. We have openings for research interns in the broad areas of networking and distributed systems all year round. Feel free to contact me if you are interested.
