Research/Advising

My research interests are in computer network, distributed system area, more particularly, I have done research in the following areas, and expect to broaden my research horizon to topics that ignite my interest.

• Mobile ad hoc network, Disruption Tolerant Network, sensor network

• Performance modeling of epidemic style routing
• Network Coding: benefit and practical scheme design
• Mobility traces modeling

• Performance evaluation via modeling, simulation and experiments
• Various network traces (e.g., mobility, social network traces) modeling
• Multimedia streaming system: design, implementation, performance evaluation.
