Projects
I work on wireless networking, primarily at the interface between algorithms, network protocols and radio reality. At the moment, my main projects are joint optimization of physical-layer and MAC processes, and emulation of RF signal propagation as a tool for networking research. I’m guilty of occasional digressions into security, formal logic, programming languages, and computer science education.
For a look at what I doing until recently (though it was out of date, then, too) take a look at my University of Colorado page.

Collaborators
Advisors: Douglas Sicker, Dirk Grunwald. Dissertation committee: Timothy X. Brown, Manuel Laguna, Sanjay Shakkottai. Some people I’ve worked with over the years: Peter Steenkiste, Caleb Phillips, Kevin Bauer, Gary Yee, Michael Buettner, Fan Bai (GM Research), Richard Han, Michal Young, Reza Rejaie, Jun Li. Students I’m co-advising or have supervised: Xiaohui Wang (ECE Ph.D.), Joel Feinstein (ECE M.S.), Sundeep Konudula (ECE undergraduate), Anirudh Reddy Pesaladinne (ECE undergraduate).
Note to Students
I am a post-doc. This means, among other things, that my time here is limited and that I do not have my own graduate students. If you are a prospective graduate student, I will probably be gone before you get here.
Current students: If you’re interested in anything I’m working on, come talk to me!
Resume/CV
I am currently on the job market and will be available starting Summer 2013. Here is my CV.
