I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Alabama and direct the Wireless, Mobile and Networking Research Lab (WiMaN).  I received my Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from the University of California at Los Angeles in 2003. Earlier, I obtained my MS degree from Computer Science Department, Zhejiang University, P.R. China. My research interests include mobile and wireless networks (MANET, VANET, DTN), connected vehicular and transportation systems, underwater acoustic communication networks, mobile edge / fog computing and software defined networks. My research activities involve network architecture and protocol design, mobility and mobile network modeling, performance evaluation and prototyping. My research is (has been) supported by NSF and the University of Alabama Research Advisory Committee award.   For details, please visit WiMaN Lab and Publications.
