Research

I am currently a postdoctoral researcher in University of Florida. My research interests include
  • disruption-toleration networking protocols in wireless mesh networks,
  • localization, tracking and navigation applications in wireless mesh networks,
  • new applications and cross-layer design of RFID systems,
  • concurrent system design and business workflow verification.

Quote

"In my experience, most stuff that you start is mediocre for a really long time before it actually gets good. And you can't tell if it's going to be good until you're really late in the process. So the only thing you can do is have faith that if you do enough stuff, something will turn out great and really surprise you."
