Research

Research Topics: My research interests lie in Networking Algorithm Design and System Implementation. Specifically, recently I am working on some fundamental problems in mobile edge computing and datacenter networks (e.g., flow routing and scheduling, job dispatching and scheduling, resource allocation). We are dedicated in designing novel algorithmic solutions based on online/distributed/learning algorithms to enhance the mobile computing systems.
