I'm a Software undergraduate at Ajou University, exploring efficient AI systems and reliable GPU communication.
My work focuses on LLM inference, KV cache offloading, and RDMA fault recovery—understanding how data moves across hardware and what happens when communication fails.
- Developing KV cache supply paths across local DRAM, NVMe, and remote storage using GPUDirect Storage and NVMe-oF over RDMA.
- Implementing a C++ cuFile backend in vLLM and bandwidth-aware block placement.
- Validating error propagation across CPU verbs, NCCL, and NVSHMEM through fault injection.
- Investigating safe replay conditions and prototyping QP-local recovery without application changes.
- Paper submitted to KSC: Analyzing RDMA Error Conditions and Cross-Layer Error Propagation for Transparent Recovery.
