Weikai Lin and Yu Feng ’23 awarded best paper

Researchers from the Department of Computer Science won a best paper award at the ACM International Conference on Architectural Support for Programming Languages and Operating Systems (ASPLOS) 2025, a premier venue for computer systems.
The paper, selected out of 912 entries, was authored by computer science PhD student Weikai Lin, alumnus Yu Feng ’23, and Associate Professor Yuhao Zhu.
The paper proposes a new rendering system that leverages characteristics of the human visual system. For the first time, the system achieves real-time photorealistic rendering on untethered virtual reality devices. The team plans to extend the work to augmented reality, which poses an even greater problem than VR.
