Vivek Pai, a computer scientist at Princeton University, has created a new method for storing Web content that could make Internet access speedier and more affordable around the world.
Before joining Princeton in Spring 2000, Vivek Pai received his PhD from Rice University in 2000, under the direction of Willy Zwaenepoel and Peter Druschel. His research focused on OS, application, and cluster-level techniques for improving server performance.
At Princeton, he continues working in server performance, but has also addressed issues related to security and reliability in wide-area systems, such as content distribution networks.
He is one of the founders of iMimic Networking, where he helped architect and develop the fastest Web proxy server in the world.
