Bio

I am a researcher in the Systems group at IBM Research - Tokyo in Japan, which is part of IBM's Research Division. I joined the laboratory in 1992. I was on assignment at the IBM T. J. Watson Research Center from 2008 to 2009.

My research interests are optimizing compilers, language runtime, parallel processing, and processor architectures.

I worked on many research projects related to compilers and performance, such as

Recently, my research focuses on building a toolchain for an AI accelerator (RaPiD). I am a committer of Apache Spark and Apache Arrow.

I received an M.S. (1992) and Ph.D. (2002) from Waseda University, in the field of information and computer science.
I am a member of ACM (Distinguished Member) (People of ACM), IPSJ (Senior Member), and JSSST (ex-board member).
