Welcome

I am a sixth-year PhD student in Department of Computer Science at Duke University. I received my bachelor's degree in Automation from Tsinghua University in 2015.

I am interested in distributed systems and networking. Currently I am working on building end-to-end virtual service network on networked infrastructure as service platform, with emphasis on network policy management with logic-based authorization. I am also interested in intra-domain traffic engineering. I am advised by Prof Jeffrey S. Chase.

My resume is here.

I am graduating and joing Facebook as a Research Scientist on Network Infrastructure in September 2020.
