Research
My research expertise is in communication networks. My research is concerned with optimizing network architectures and protocols. Probability theory, queueing theory, combinatorial optimization, discrete event simulation, and a little statistics comes in handy.
My research results have been presented at several IEEE conferences, and published in several IEEE, OSA, and Elsevier journals on communications. I have over 640 combined citations on my articles. One article I co-authored received the 2009 IEEE Communications Society Best Tutorial Paper Award.
My research activities have been sponsored by the National Science Foundation and Huawei Technologies (the world’s largest telecom equipment manufacturer by sales volume).
My current active research projects are:
Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA) for Ethernet Passive Optical Networks
DBA for Hybrid Fiber/Copper Access Networks
Video Bandwidth Forecasting
