My research goal for the next several years is to apply my expertise in computer networking to find innovative solutions to large-scale problems in energy systems, working with researchers in related disciplines, as well as with partners in industry, and aiming to have impact both in Canada and around the world.
ACM MobiCom Best Paper Award (2009); NSERC Discovery Accelerator Supplement Award (2007); ACM SIGCOMM Test-of-time Award (2006); Canada Research Chair II in Tetherless Computing (2004); Alfred P. Sloan Fellow in Computer Science (1997); Best Student Paper Award (1991)
After graduating in 1991, I joined AT&T Bell Laboratories as a Member of Technical Staff. During my five years there, I was involved in designing, implementing, and tuning the world's first wide-area IP-over-ATM network.
I joined Cornell as an Associate Professor in 1996 and served as a consultant to Lucent (Internet telephony), Ericsson (IP-based infrastructure), Intel (network simulation), Cabletron (native-model ATM), and Torrent Networks (high-speed routing).
I co-founded Ensim Corp. in 1998 and subsequently spent four years as full-time employee working on technology, products, marketing, and corporate strategy as CTO and Member, Board of Directors. Ensim's software allows Internet service providers and telcos to scalably and profitably host applications, primarily related to website hosting, on behalf of small to midsize enterprises.
I also co-founded GreenBorder Technologies, an enterprise class security solution vendor which was acquired by Google in 2007. I co-founded Astilbe Networks (now called Bee Networx) in 2007 to commercialize my research in opportunistic communication.
During 2010, I spent two months of my sabbatical visiting Technicolor Labs in Paris, France.
I solely or jointly hold 19 US patents. My research has been funded by grants from HP, Sprint, Microsoft, Cisco, and Intel, in addition to NSERC, CFI, ORF, and the Canada Research Chair Program.
