A Story

 
 
 

In 2008, I have begun my life as a postdoctoral researcher working with Dr. Pietro Lio and Prof. Jon Crowcroft on the US-UK International Technology Alliance project and the EU FP7 SocialNets project in University of Cambridge. My work here is about stochastic analysis and data mining for large complex systems --- mostly wireless, ad hoc networks.


I finished my PhD thesis "Distributed Proximity Query Processing" under the great guidance of Dr Steven Hand in SRG. Basically, my thesis shows how one can perform proximity search over large collection of web pages or images spread across many machines on the Internet. This, however, involves improvements to the current random projection techniques, overlay structure, and local database semantics to P2 (with Petros Maniatis).


Prior to my PhD, I got my BA and Masters degree from Dept. Information Management, National Taiwan University. I spent most of my research time in distributed systems laboratory advised by Prof. Yuh-Jzer Joung.
