Bryan does research in operating systems, networking, and virtualization, and dabbles in storage systems, programming languages, and formal methods. His goal is to create a new, fully decentralized ("peer-to-peer") paradigm for applications distributed across personal devices and Internet services, built from novel OS abstractions such as personal groups, structured streams, and lightweight sandboxing.
