معرفی
Saptarshi Debroy is an Associate Professor of Computer Science at Hunter College and a member of the Doctoral Faculties at The Graduate Center, CUNY. He leads the Distributed Systems and Security (DiSSect) Lab and co-leads the CoSSMO Lab, focusing on resilient distributed systems, edge computing, and cyber security. His research addresses challenges in disaster response systems, federated cloud workflows, and moving target defense mechanisms. He holds a PhD in Computer Engineering from the University of Central Florida and has held roles including Post-Doctoral Fellow at the University of Missouri.
- Education: PhD (Computer Engineering, UCF, 2014), MTech (Distributed & Mobile Computing, Jadavpur University, 2008), BTech (Information Technology, West Bengal University of Technology, 2006)
Research Interests
His work spans distributed systems, edge/AI-driven networks, cyber security, and resource optimization in disaster scenarios. Key areas include fog computing frameworks for real-time video processing (EFFECT), secure federated workflows (ADON), and MTD-based cloud defense strategies. He emphasizes practical applications like disaster response and healthcare data security.
Grants & Awards
Recipient of NSF CAREER Award (2020), NSF grants totaling over $1.1M, and Google Research Award. Notable projects include a trusted framework for health incident response (NSF), volunteer edge-cloud resource allocation (NSF), and DDoS mitigation strategies (NSF).
Teaching & Service
Teaches graduate courses on distributed systems, cloud computing, and networks at CUNY. Serves on NSF review panels and as chair for IEEE/ACM conferences. Leads initiatives like the Cyber Security Summer School for Women to promote diversity in tech.
Labs & Collaborations
Directs the DiSSect Lab, which develops edge-native systems for disaster response and secure AI. Collaborates with FDNY, perfSONAR, and NSF-funded testbeds like PAWR. Partnerships include projects with bioinformatics and high-performance computing communities (CyVerse, XSEDE).
