telecommunication networks and information systems;
- Applications to broadband, satellite,
wireless, mobile, and personal communications networking and cloud
computing.
Summary
My research interests are
in the area of telecommunications and computer communications networking. The
scope of the research includes design, evaluation, and analysis of network
architectures, protocols, and network management, control, and internetworking
strategies for reliable, efficient, and cost effective communications. The convergence
of wireless and broadband communications has led to the integration of
heterogeneous wireless and wireline networking technologies, often into the
same device, to enable ubiquitous multimedia communications among people and
machines regardless of locations and mobility. The thrust of the research is to
contribute to the development of this emerging global network, with current
focuses on energy efficient service provisioning over 5G wireless mobile
broadband networks and beyond. The issues addressed include mainly: scheduling
and resource management in networks to provide quality of service guarantees,
design of network architectures and protocols for high performance and
energy-efficient broadband communications, development of protocols and mechanisms
for security and privacy in wireless networks, and development of protocols and
algorithms for application-specific wireless networking. Most projects involve
novel designs and performance evaluation by modeling and analysis using
analytical, numerical, and simulation methods. While optimization techniques
are widely used in the research, increasing model-free machine-learning based
approaches are contemplated to facilitate practical implementations.
