I obtained my Ph.D. degree in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in October 2006. My Ph.D. adviser was Professor Jennifer C. Hou and co-adviser was Professor Nitin H. Vaidya.

During my Ph.D. study, I have been focusing on the research area of wireless networking and mobile computing -- the performance analysis, protocol design and evaluation and simulation. In particular, they include:

  • Power management
  • Bandwidth management, including efficient utilization and Quality of Service (QoS)
  • Fast and scalable simulation
  • Broadcast efficiency
