Shin-yu Wang

Worked on the google/perfetto repository to enhance display and graphics performance observability by developing and integrating new ftrace events, metrics, and UI features. Leveraged C++ and Protocol Buffers to implement tracing for DPU underruns, vertical blank IRQs, and graphics pipelines, enabling granular diagnostics and real-time monitoring. Improved data accuracy and reporting by refining event schemas and updating SQL-based metrics collection. Validated changes through automated Python tests and end-to-end UI verification, ensuring reliable visualization and faster debugging. This work provided deeper insights into system performance, reduced mean time to resolution for display issues, and established a robust foundation for future optimizations.
