In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a postdoctoral researcher from China in the field of computer science. He had conducted his research in the highly specialized areas of scheduling frameworks, resource management, large-scale distributed systems, and high-performance computing. His work had resulted in 25 peer-reviewed conference and journal articles (13 of them first authored) and 10 presentations in national and international conferences; at the time that his case was filed, his publications had been cited at least 168 times by independent and leading researchers from prestigious institutions and organizations around the world, indicating the major significance of his work. He had also reviewed 15 journal manuscripts and 48 conference manuscripts. His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[Client] developed a walltime-aware job allocation feature, which utilizes adjusted runtime estimates and can reduce system fragmentation that is commonly observed in large scale supercomputers, thereby preventing a significant amount of expensive computing cycles from being wasted [...] and showed that they effectively improve job scheduling performance in terms of system utilization and user satisfaction.” It was our goal to prove that our client qualified for classification as an Alien of Extraordinary Ability given that he sought to remain in the United States to continue work in the area of computer science, and that his continued research would substantially and prospectively benefit the United States. With the proof and documentation that we provided, his case was approved in 24 days.
