My name is Xulin Zhou(周旭林), a graduate student at Institute of Software, Chinese Academy of Sciences(ISCAS) in Beijing. I graduated from Jinan University with a bachelor's degree in 2023. I was born and bred in Dongguan.
My research interests lie in Parallel Computing and Compiler Optimization. As a member of PLCT lab, I have served as a maintainer and contributor to several open-source compiler projects. See my personal statement here.
Writing is my long-standing habit. I have been keeping a diary since high school. Parts of the diaries are organized as several columns to summarize miscellaneous insights from my experiences and reading.
Living in the city, I "cityrun" regularly to explore different neighborhoods. When I am outdoors, I like trekking which opens up new ways of experiencing life. I also like playing ping pong, badminton, volleyball and shuttlecock, always more for fun than at a competitive level.
