Biography

I am a fifth-year PhD Candidate at the Systems Group at ETH Zurich. My research focuses on infrastructure for serverless computing, cluster management, optimizing resource usage. I am advised by Prof. Dr. Ana Klimovic. I received my MSc and BSc degrees from the University of Belgrade, School of Electrical Engineering in Serbia.
