NSDI '09 NSDI '06

I am graduaing in May 2010 and currently looking for an academic or industry research position. You can find my application materials here.


Academic Background

I am a Ph.D. student in the Computer Science Department at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. I am part of the Sensors (The wireless sensor networks group) and am advised by Prof. Deepak Ganesan, Prof. Arun Venkataramani. I also did projects with Prof. Prashant Shenoy and Prof. Michael Zink.

I received a Computer Science M.S. degree in July 2004 from Tsinghua University (Beijing, China), and received a Computer Science B.E. degree with honor in July 2001 from Harbin Institute of Technology (Harbin, China).

Research

I am working in the areas of wireless mesh networks and sensor networks at UMass. Currently I am working on the Hop project. I have also been working on the CASA project and the PRESTO project. However, my research interests are broadly in the areas of networking and distributed systems. I have worked in peer-to-peer networks, pervasive computing and parallel computing.
