Research Interests:

My latest research project is Computational Modeling and Analysis of Complex Systems, a major collaborative NSF-funded project involving a number of institutions. The main Web site is http://cmacs.cs.cmu.edu/. My interests in the project are modeling cellular signaling pathways and designing student workshops to teach the modeling and analysis techniques that we are developing.

I also work in network interoperability testing, development of network monitoring and analysis tools, and efficient MANET algorithms. Recently, I developed a software tool suite called AGATE for generating a collection of state machines representing aspects of the behavior of a network protocol. Earlier, I received a “Best Paper Award” from FORTE/PSTV for a breakthrough interoperability testing methodology developed in a collaborative effort between the Network Systems Research Group at Bell Labs and Lucent’s Next Generation Networking Labs. This methodology has been used very effectively in Lucent’s Next Generation Networking Labs for testing Voice over Packet systems. From 1988-1998, my best-known work was in the area of feature interactions. The primary contributions were a classification of feature interactions (one of the most cited papers in the field); the use of intelligent agents to negotiate the terms of a communication session; and the development of a met hodology and tools for rapid service creation.
