Masanori Misono (味曽野 雅史)

I am a researcher in the Chair of Computer Systems at Department of Computer Science // TUM School of Computation, Information and Technology (CIT), Technical University of Munich (TUM), Germany, where I lead the OS and Virtualization Group. My research topics include operating systems, virtualization technology, and system software.

Before joining the TUM, I obtained my degree in the Shinagawa Laboratory at the University of Tokyo, Japan.
