Self-introduction

I am an Associate Professor at College of Computer Science and Electronic Engineering, and Deputy Director of Office of Informatization, Hunan University.

Before I joined Hunan University, I worked at Microsoft Research Asia as an Associate Researcher, from 2016-2018. During my years at MSRA (started from 2014 as a research intern), I was lucky to work closely with many great researchers such as Kun Tan from Wireless & Networking Group, Thomas Moscibroda from Cloud & Mobile Group, Lidong Zhou from System Group, and Yongqiang Xiong from Networking Group.
I got my Ph.D. from the Department of Computer Science at Tsinghua University, working with Dan Pei and Youjian Zhao. I did my undergrad at Wuhan University.

My Chinese version self-introduction is available on our school's site. Find it here.

Research Interest

My research interests lie broadly in computer networking and networked system, with a special focus on cloud networking for now. If you have no idea about the cloud networking, you may refer to my course materials (prepared for senior undergraduate students) which overview the current hottest cloud networking research topics. I also do research on AI system.

I'm always looking for hard-working and self-motivated PhD/master/intern students who are interested in networking and system research.

Non-research Interest

I love to play volleyball. I served as the captain of Tsinghua University volleyball team, which won the silver medal twice in Beijing University Volleyball League in 2015 and 2014. I'm also good at badminton :)
I sometimes write some blogs here (for both technical and non-technical stuff). You are welcome to pay a visit. Currently, most of the blogs are written in Chinese.
