Research Experience
  • Currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science at Durham University, UK, and a member of the NESTiD group. Previously, a postdoc at UMass Amherst.
Education
  • PhD: Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Waterloo, Canada, under the supervision of Prof. Ravi R. Mazumdar; Postdoc: CICS, UMass Amherst, USA, worked with Prof. Don Towsley.
Background
  • Main research interests include mathematical modeling, performance evaluation, and optimization of classical and quantum computer networks. Currently working on quantum networking, datacenter networks, sequential analysis, and anomaly detection in networks. Uses applied probability, queueing theory, stochastic processes, and optimization for research.
Miscellany
  • Open positions: Looking for self-motivated PhD students to work on quantum internet, cloud computing, and IoT; also welcomes applications from self-funded students; has a 2-year postdoc position available focusing on quantum internet.
