Sasindu Wijeratne
I am a first-year graduate student in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Southern California. I'm working with Professor Viktor Prasanna in FPGA/Parallel Computing Lab. My research interests include developing memory systems for sparse algebraic applications including, tensor decomposition and scalable static/dynamic graph processing. My current research focuses on tensor decomposition on heterogeneous systems.
