He has co-authored more than 150 publications on his research, which includes massive storage and file system, memory and disk architecture, data-intensive computing, and high-performance computing.<\/p>\n<p>Wang is best known for his pioneering research in low-power disk system design. He has developed a low-power disk array prototype showing real-time power and energy conservation with 30-50% savings at scale without degrading performance. IBM, Google, and Western Digital make energy-efficient storage products inspired by Wang\u2019s work.<\/p>\n<p>His contributions to data storage systems enables scientists and engineers to conduct big data analyses with complex access patterns in faster and easier ways. His pioneering solution on redundancy-reuse design also opens up a new data deduplication direction in memory and storage research at the early stage of the big data era.<\/p>\n<p>A widely recognized global expert in massive storage and file technology, Wang has received numerous awards including U.S. National Science Foundation CAREER Award and the Department of Energy Early Career Principal Investigator Award. He received Editorial Excellence and Eminence Award (EEE) of IEEE Transactions on Cloud Computing in 2018.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"h3\">Greg Welch<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_125476\" style=\"max-width: 300px;\" class=\"figure float-left\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"figure-img img-fluid w-100 wp-image-125476 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/news\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2022\/01\/GregWelch_2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"greg welch\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2022\/01\/GregWelch_2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2022\/01\/GregWelch_2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2022\/01\/GregWelch_2-599x400.jpg 599w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2022\/01\/GregWelch_2-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2022\/01\/GregWelch_2.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"figure-img img-fluid w-100 wp-image-125476 size-medium lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20300%20200%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt=\"greg welch\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20300%20200%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2022\/01\/GregWelch_2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2022\/01\/GregWelch_2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2022\/01\/GregWelch_2-599x400.jpg 599w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2022\/01\/GregWelch_2-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2022\/01\/GregWelch_2.jpg 1200w\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/news\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2022\/01\/GregWelch_2-300x200.jpg\"><figcaption class=\"figure-caption\">Pegasus Professor Greg Welch<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The computer scientist and engineer is the AdventHealth Endowed Chair in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/degree\/health-care-simulation-certificate\/\">Healthcare Simulation<\/a> in UCF\u2019s College of Nursing.
