I am a PhD student in the Department of Computer Science, University of Massachusetts.
I work with Professor Deepak Ganesan and Professor R. Manmatha. I received my MS degree from ISCAS, China and BS degree from Nanjing
University, China.
Research Interests
My
research interests are broadly in the areas of distributed systems and
wireless sensor networks. I am perticularly interested in data management and query processing in sensor networks. Now I am
working on distributed image search in sensor networks.

Projects
SenSearch:
A distributed image search engine to efficiently search across images
stored on distributed camera sensors, imagers, and cellphones. Dual-cam: A sensor platform that uses heterogeneous cameras for efficient object finding.
MUDS:
Design of a progressive data transmission scheme to optimize utility
across multiple diverse users (meteorologist, researcher, emergency
manager) in a high data-rate radar sensor network.
