"My research focuses on trustworthy autonomous systems:
algorithms and tools that help computing systems make the right decisions at the right time with the right use of resources."
We work on resource allocation and learning problems for performance, resilience and security risk management with applications in content distribution, critical infrastructures, autonomous systems, and mobile computation offloading. We develop and use methods in game-theory, stochastic modeling, distributed optimization, and learning.
