Research interests |
My research focuses on the design, modeling and evaluation of networked systems for distributed storage, computing and control. My research group works on resource allocation
and learning problems for performance, resilience and security risk management with applications in content distribution, critical infrastructures, and mobile computation offloading.
- Applied game theory
- Critical infrastructure security (smart grid, smart cities, transportation)
- Mobile edge computing
- Cache networks
