Berkay Inceisci
PhD Student, Computer Science
Virginia Tech
I am a second-year PhD student in the Department of Computer Science at Virginia Tech, where I am a member of MoatLab, advised by Prof. Huaicheng Li.
My research interests lie at the intersection of operating systems and computer architecture, with a focus on emerging memory and storage systems such as CXL-based devices.
Before joining Virginia Tech, I received my BSc in Computer Science from Bilkent University in 2024. During my undergraduate studies, I worked as a part-time software design engineer at a defense company, developing flight control software for unmanned aerial vehicles.
