Research Interests

I am working with Professors Andrea Goldsmith (Star Laboratory) and Stephen Boyd (Information Systems Laboratory) in the following areas:

Wireless-NUM (WNUM) extends Network Utility Maximization to wireless networks with randomly changing channel environments. The results are optimal network control policies that respond to changing channel conditions and packet backlog.
Developing adaptive WNUM network control policies under the assumption that the distribution of channel states is unknown.
Characterizing the rate-reliability-delay tradeoffs for wireless networks using FROEC analysis.
Applying FROEC and WNUM to network oriented Stackelberg games.
