Biographical Sketch

I joined the University of Virginia in August 2004. Under the direction of Professor John A. Stankovic, I mainly work on communication reality, power management, quality of service and programming paradigms in wireless sensor networks. 

I received my B.E. in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the Shanghai Jiao Tong University in July 2004.

Resume

Areas of Interest

My research interests lie in wireless sensor networks, ad-hoc networks, distributed operating systems and database systems.
