I am a research student at The Computing Department of Lancaster University. I am currently working on EC-GIN, an IST project. EC-GIN is designing advanced network services specifically tailored for grid applications. Learn more about it here.

I started reading for a PhD degree in November 2006, supervised by Dr. Chris Edwards and Prof. David Hutchison.

Research Interests

I am mainly interested in purely passive techniques to measure network performance in environments where it has considerable impact, such as grids.

• distributed systems - measurement of network performance and computational resource availability in grids, resource discovery and reservation in grids, grid simulation
• mobile ad hoc networks - routing, content distribution, context awareness, fault resilience
• peer-to-peer overlays & autonomous networks
• security & social engineering
