About Me
Heyyy! My name is Hanwen Liu (a.k.a. 'Howie', 'HL'). I am a first-year Electrical and Computer Engineering master student at UIUC working with Prof. Nam Sung Kim. My research interest lies in computer architecture and parallel processing.
I was an undergrad in CompE at ZJU-UIUC, a joint institute between Zhejiang University and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
I am fascinated with board games and ciphers, e.g., acronyms, acrostics, anagrams, etc. In my leisure time, I will loiter in the city or play Werewolf or The Resistance with my friends. Somehow, I have most of my focus on research-related work recently.
