His research interests are around modeling and optimization of complex communication networks. Multiple emerging areas of communication networks have been touched, like 5G and beyond networks, large scale heterogeneous WSNs and IoT. Several academic papers had been published in academic conferences and journals including a top impact factor journal IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics. He also has rich experience in software development in the industry both in the UK and China. Based on the above experience in academics and industry, he has the potential to make more contributions to the next generation network reconstruction of China Telecom, as well as the development of ONAP.
