UIC Students Highlight Research at GCASR 2026

UIC students presented several posters at the Greater Chicago Area Systems Research Workshop (GCASR 2026), highlighting research spanning high-performance computing, AI, scientific visualization, resilient and energy-efficient computing, and edge systems:

A Client-Side Architecture for Scalable Ingestion and Interactive Visualization of Cosmological Particle Data, Idunnuoluwa Adeniji, Joseph Insley, Michael E. Papka
Multi-Knob Job-Level Performance-Energy Optimization via Phase-Aware Bandit Control and GEOPM, Niccolò Brembilla, Zhiling Lan, Michael E. Papka
Agentic Orchestrator for Scientific LLM Inference, Aldo Malaquias Cabrera, Michael E. Papka, Zhiling Lan
Cross-Architecture GPU Fault Injection at the LLVM IR Level, Maisy Dunlavy, Zhiling Lan, Michael E. Papka
SchedTwin: Simulation-Assisted Online Learning for Adaptive HPC Scheduling, Yash Kurkure, Jordan Zhang, Kanglin Xu, Michael E. Papka, Zhiling Lan
Jetson Sensor Hub: A Virtual Sensor Telemetry Platform for Real-Time Environmental Monitoring, Om Patel, Michael E. Papka
Optimized Task Scheduling for Connectomics and Large-Scale Image Processing Workloads, Jyotsna Rajaraman, Michael E. Papka
A Joint Evaluation of Deployment Efficiency and Semantic Accuracy in Compact Vision-Language Models on Edge Systems, Fatima Mora Garcia, Michael E. Papka, Alejandra Rios
Optimizing LLM Batch Inference with Workload-Aware DVFS, Yiheng Tao, Yuping Fan, Michael E. Papka, Zhiling Lan

The student projects reflect the breadth of systems research underway at UIC, from scheduling, resilience, and energy efficiency on large-scale computing systems to scientific AI, visualization, and edge computing.
