Professional Profile 

Education:  

    Candidate for Ph.D in Electrical Engineering, Columbia University, NY, NY 
    MS Electrical Engineering, June 1991, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA 
    BS Computer Engineering, June 1986, Northeastern University, Boston, MA 

    Research Interest 

        Programmable or software-based networks enabling scalable distribution and wide-spread use of multimedia-based applications over the Internet. In highly distributed and hetereogeneous environments, I am motivated by research in QoS and the development of  next-generation network systems.  
     
    General technical interests: 
    • Programmable networks
    • Network service control and management
    • Quality of service and adaptive technologies 
    • Virtual network technologies
    • Collaborative applications - technologies and enabling protocols
    • Modeling and analysis of commications networks
Industry Experience:  
    Currently, I work with Intel's Information Technology Strategy and Technology group as a technology research analyst. I am involved with research and evaluation of Internet building block technologies in the areas of policy-based networks, QoS and multimedia networks,  

    Previous to this,  I architected and lead the development of enterprise-level capacity & performance management tools to manage Intel's ATM/IP/Frame relay wide area networks and Windows NT platform servers.  I was a key contributor to the  network redesign of Intel’s Asian WAN and the US Field Sales Offices (FSO) network. 

    Prior to my experience at Intel, I spent 8 years at DEC, developing local area network products, network modeling and capacity planning tools.  I have software implemented algorithms to model the behavior of end-end, distributed applications, network routing protocols, logical disk subsystems/controllers and CPU priority schemes.
