My research interests lie in the area of Networked Distributed Systems and their applications, and spans from hands-on system-design and experimentation, to data-based machine-learnign methods and formal optimization-based algorithms for such systems, to advanced mathematical modelling and analysis of their perfomrance.
More specifically, I work on modeling, performance analysis, algorithm design, and system design and implementation for efficient, AI-enabled and privacy-preserving networked, distributed systems, including the Internet and the web, data centers and cloud systems, wireless systems (e.g. WiFi, cellular, IoT, spectrum sharing, delay tolerant, mobile ad hoc), augmented and virtual reality systems, autonomous robotic/vehicle/drone systems, and peer to peer systems.
These systems have a direct impact to people’s lives, exemplified by the profound changes that the Internet, the World Wide Web, the cellular network and smart phones have brought to our lives in the recent past, the profound changes that data centers and the cloud recently brought to the way companies operate and offer services to us, and the profound changes that AI and autonomous systems involving vechicles, robots and drones will bring pretty soon.
