Research Interests:
Our current and recent research projects focus on:
* Broadband access (to provide end users at network edges with sufficient bandwidth and QoS)
* Network coding (to improve network performance by mixing/coding information received from multiple links at intermediate network nodes)
* Network security (to maintain the integrity of the Internet and other emerging networks)
* Quality-of-Service (QoS) provisioning (to support networked applications requiring different qualities of service)
* Link state updating (to expedite the exchange of network state information)
* Active queue management (to control congestion and to reduce the occurrence of overflows of packet buffers associated with network routers)
* Traffic modeling and scheduling (to improve the ability to engineer and operate networks with predictable qualities of service)
* Specific network-based applications, such as electronic voting (e-voting) systems.
* All-optical networks (to increase the information-carrying capacity and the utilization of network assets via the re-arrangability of network connectivity)
* Multimedia Communicaionts
