Welcome to the Open Networks and Big Data Lab, led by Prof. Lakshminarayanan Subramanian.
We are a team of researchers in the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences at New York University, focusing on fundamental and applied research in the broad areas of networked systems and machine learning/big data analytics. We solve real-world societal problems at scale, and extract and address the fundamental research questions underlying these problems as well as translate our ideas into practice for societal impact. The larger goal is to contribute to socio-economic development by designing innovative computing technologies for real world societal challenges. Our research philosophy places a strong emphasis on “end-to-end system design”, where we design, implement, deploy and evaluate our solutions in the real world and push successful ideas towards adoption at scale.
We are part of the NYU Systems group in the Computer Science Department.
