I am Sunwoo Kim, a second-year Ph.D. student in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Cornell. I am advised by Prof. Zhiru Zhang. I work on languages for computer architecture and more generally ML systems co-design.
Previously, I:
studied in South Korea: Seoul National University (2019–2024), Seoul Science High School (2016–2018)
Projects
Accelerator Specification Language: Formal language and code generation to design and program ML accelerators.
MiniTPU: Research VLIW TPU stack with 45nm implementation, FPGA prototypes, Triton compiler, and a serving engine.
Others: Rack-level characterization of agentic inference and RL workloads.
