Research Interests and Overview

Research Interests

I am interested in fundamental research and empirical analysis in distributed network computing. My long-term research goal is to make network systems more autonomous, scalable, adaptive, survivable and easier to develop. I am particularly attracted to the research issues that cross the boundaries among distributed computing, software engineering and artificial intelligence. My current research interests include the following topics.

• Autonomous and adaptive distributed systems
• Cognitive middleware for autonomic network systems
• Reflective and reconfigurable network systems
• Self-organizing overlay networks
• Biologically-inspired (e.g. immune, genetic and developmental) software designs
• Object-oriented and aspect-oriented programming languages
• Model-driven software development
• Object-oriented modeling languages, software patterns and frameworks

• Projects
• Publications
• Research Group: Distributed Software Systems Group

Research Opportunities

Several research oopportunities are available for highly-qualified postdoctoral fellows, graduate students and undergraduate students.
