A short bio; my publications.
What's New:
Research Projects:
I normally take on new graduate students from CS217 classes.
My suggestion to new students is to dive into research projects right away. Mohit showed me the pointer to some excellent advice on independent studies by Prof. Brian Kernighan of Princeton University.
My research group:
Internet Research Lab
1/1/2010: The new decade seems to need a new acronym--the thing we used to call "cellphone" is no longer a phone; it has become a general-purpose computer and making calls is merely one of its many app's (e.g. look at your iPhone). At the same time a number of new types of hand-held "devices" (for lack of a better word) have shown up, e.g. Amazon’s Kindle, iPod, or this forever coming Apple tablet.
Previous news
Here is a suggestion for a new acronym for them all: HHDs, for Hand-Held Devices.
Biologically Inspired Network Designs
