Interests
My research interests are mostly in the area of networked systems
and encompass its following aspects:
behavior of distributed entities, utilization of shared network
resources, and alignment of network services with application
needs. In particular, I am interested in transmission control, access control,
link scheduling, buffer management and other means of effective network and system
support for media streaming,
bulk data transfer, and interactive delay-sensitive applications.
Transgressing the traditional paradigm of networking protocol design,
I investigate systems where numerous independent stakeholders are capable of behaving differently
than specified by protocols.
My objective is to design new network architectures and protocols that
exhibit both high performance and robustness when exposed to realistic mixes of
compliant behaviors, incidental failures, selfish manipulations, and malicious attacks
by networked parties. Hence,
my research interests span such diverse domains as
network security, fault tolerance, multimedia, real-time systems, and performance evaluation.
In choosing specific problems to work on, I favor those of fundamental nature so that
my solutions will remain relevant over long time and for various future applications...
