About Me
I am a member of the Future Networking (FUN) Research Laboratory, where I am a Ph.D. student and advised by Prof. Yu Cheng. My primary research interests include wireless network security, VoIP application and security, and intrusion detection. Prior to pursuing my doctoral degree, I received the B.S. degree in Computer Science from Fudan Unversity, Shanghai, China and the Master's degree in Information Technology and Management from Illinois Institute of Technology, Chicago, Illinois.
